Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk until the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, milk, and honey until fully combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender bread texture.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top of the bread with powdered sugar for a sweet finishing touch. Slice and serve!
