Here’s a delicious and easy recipe for Honey Buttermilk Bread! This bread is soft, slightly sweet, and has a rich flavor from the honey and buttermilk.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, buttermilk, and egg.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix just until the ingredients are combined – it’s okay if the batter is a little lumpy. Avoid overmixing.
- Transfer to Loaf Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent it with a piece of aluminum foil and continue baking.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Slice and enjoy! This bread is perfect on its own or spread with a bit of butter or jam.
