Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups chopped walnuts
- 0.5 cups dried cranberries (or raisins)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this dry mixture aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue whisking until well combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract to the egg mixture.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, and dried cranberries (or raisins) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and enjoy as a dessert or afternoon snack alongside tea or coffee.
