- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
Ingredients
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ tsp almond extract
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup sprinkles
- 8 oz sour cream or full-fat yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- ⅔ cups granulated sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF (177ºC) and lightly coat a 9"x5" loaf pan with non-stick spray.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, then set this aside.
- In a larger bowl, whisk the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, almond extract, and sour cream or yogurt until fully blended.
- Gradually stir the dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Gently fold in the sprinkles, taking care not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 40 to 42 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
- Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients for smoother mixing and better texture.
- Opt for jimmies-style sprinkles to prevent color bleeding into the batter.
- Avoid overmixing once the dry ingredients are added to keep the bread light.
