Equipment
- 1 9x5 inch loaf pan
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour *or sub regular all-purpose flour*
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup and 1/2 tbsp + 2 tsp sugar
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt *dairy-free or regular*
- 1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 1/4 cups dairy-free or regular milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Grease or oil the loaf pan, and set aside.In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients (flour - sugar).
- In a smaller (medium) bowl, combine the wet ingredients well with a fork. This includes the Greek yogurt, olive oil, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar and milk.
- Pour the combined wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Combine together with the fork just until the mixture is mostly smooth. Some small lumps may remain..
- Add batter to the loaf pan, making sure to spread it evenly in the pan. Bake for around 43 minutes. Test the middle of the loaf with a toothpick before turning the oven off, to make sure the loaf is fully done.
- After taking the pan out of the oven, let it sit for 5 minutes before removing the loaf. Transfer the loaf to a wire rack or other surface to cool further. Serve topped with whipped cream, ice cream, frozen yogurt, etc. Or even plain, if you’d like.*If glazing this loaf, make sure it’s fully cooled, so the glaze won’t melt into the loaf. And allow the glaze to set for a few minutes afterwards before serving* Enjoy!
