Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter (cooled)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, whole milk, and cooled melted butter together until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to avoid overmixing, which can toughen the bread.
- Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and optionally sprinkle additional cinnamon sugar on top for extra sweetness and a crunchy crust.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, indicating it is fully cooked.
Notes
- Using room temperature eggs helps the batter mix more evenly.
- You can add a cinnamon sugar topping before baking for extra flavor and texture.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk and butter with plant-based alternatives.
