Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 250 grams Mincemeat (store-bought or homemade)
- 120 milliliters Milk
- 100 grams Chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is 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 to fully incorporate.
Stir in the mincemeat, milk, and vanilla extract until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender bread.
Fold in the chopped walnuts with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 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.
