  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

  5. Step 5: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and gently fold everything together. If you’re adding nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in at this stage.
  6. Step 6: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top for an even bake.
  7. Step 7: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick.
