How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 9x5-inch loaf pan; set aside.
STEP 2

Combine flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in bowl. Add buttermilk, melted butter, 1/2 cup honey and eggs; stir just until combined.
STEP 3

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 50-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pan.

Combine all spiced honey ingredients in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes or until mixture comes to a boil. Cool completely. Serve with bread.

Tip #1

You can change the flavor and texture of this quick bread by including add-ins. Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, 1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries.

Tip #2

If your quick bread sinks in the middle, there may be too much liquid in proportion to the dry ingredients in the recipe – make sure you measure ingredients accurately. It may also mean that your baking powder is no longer active. To test whether your baking powder is still good, combine 1 teaspoon baking powder with 1/3 cup hot water. If it bubbles, it is still good. If not, replace it. Never buy baking powder past its expiration date printed on the bottom of the can.
