Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Christmas Sprinkles (mix of red, green, and white)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease and lightly flour a standard 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until the dry ingredients are moistened, being careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in about ¾ of the Christmas sprinkles into the batter, reserving the remaining ¼ for topping.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the reserved Christmas sprinkles generously over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-65 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the loaf pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
