Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1/2 tsp Ginger ground
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon ground
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Salt
Garnish
- 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds toasted, white
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan. This will prevent the loaf from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. This ensures the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, combine the honey, oil, and milk. Mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the loaf tough.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the top with toasted sesame seeds.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The center should spring back lightly when touched.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Cooling prevents the loaf from becoming soggy.
- Slice and serve. Enjoy with your favorite spread, such as butter, jam, or peanut butter.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For an extra moist and tender crumb, allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack; this helps retain just enough steam without making the bottom soggy.
- If you enjoy a pronounced spice flavor, lightly toast the cinnamon and ginger powders in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the batter—this intensifies their aroma and taste.
- To make the loaf even more visually appealing and add a slight crunch, sprinkle additional white sesame seeds on top of the batter just before baking.
- For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar and use plant-based yogurt or applesauce to replace any dairy, adjusting the liquid content slightly as needed.
Expert Tips
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten and result in a tough loaf. Mix until just combined.
- For a cleaner slice, use a serrated knife and a gentle sawing motion. Ensure the loaf is completely cooled before slicing.
- This loaf makes a wonderful breakfast or snack. Try toasting a slice and spreading it with your favorite nut butter or jam.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover loaf in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
