How To Make The Loaf

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F, grease a 9X5 loaf pan with butter, and flour dust. Set it aside.
  • Sift all the dry ingredients, and set aside.
    2 cups All-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon Baking powder, ½ teaspoon Salt, ½ teaspoon Cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg, ½ teaspoon Baking soda
