Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup molasses
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
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 whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the molasses, milk, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
