Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray. Lightly dust with flour and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually alternate adding the dry flour mixture and the milk to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry mixture. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to even out the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the loaf has cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for added sweetness and presentation.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
