We exhibit a one-parameter family of regular supersymmetric solutions of type IIB theory that describes the baryonic branch of the Klebanov-Strassler (KS) theory. The solution is obtained by applying the supersymmetry conditions for SU(3)-structure manifolds to an interpolating ansatz proposed by Papadopoulos and Tseytlin. Other than at the KS point, the family does not have a conformally-Ricci-flat metric, neither it has self-dual three-form flux. By varying also the string coupling, our solution smoothly interpolates between Klebanov-Strassler and Maldacena-Nu?ez (MN). The asymptotic IR and UV are that of KS throughout the interpolating flow, except for the extremal value of the parameter where the UV solution drastically changes to MN.
