Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, ground ginger, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, honey, and brown sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined and avoid overmixing.
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 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 before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
