Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing; some lumps are fine.
Gently fold in the chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into 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 of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the loaf pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your homemade Old Fashioned Nut Bread with a spread of butter or your favorite jam!
