Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the honey, melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well-incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 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 before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve with butter, more honey, or your favorite preserves. Enjoy!
