Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Topping:
In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and 1 t. cinnamon; set aside.
Bread:
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla, just until combined.
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder; add the flour mixture to the wet mixture; stir until combined. Add the milk; mix until smooth.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan; spread out evenly.
