Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.

  7. Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
