  4. Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, gently folding until just combined—avoid overmixing.
  5. Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared pans, filling each about an inch below the rim. Optionally, sprinkle sugar or chopped nuts on top for extra texture.

Tips & Variations

  • For a nutty crunch, add chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter before baking.
  • Try substituting half the milk with buttermilk for a tangier flavor and softer crumb.
  • You can make this bread in a single large loaf pan; just increase baking time to about 50-60 minutes.

Storage

Store the bread in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze wrapped bread for up to 2 months. To reheat, warm slices in a toaster or oven until heated through.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups light brown sugar (packed)
  • 4 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • ⅔ cup vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pans: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease six miniature loaf pans thoroughly to prevent sticking and set them aside.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Make sure the baking powder is evenly distributed for a consistent rise.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl or using a stand mixer, beat the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil until smooth and well combined. This will help create a uniform batter.
  4. Blend Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
  5. Fill Pans: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans, filling each about an inch below the rim to allow room for rising. Optionally, sprinkle sugar or chopped nuts on top for added texture and sweetness.
  6. Bake: Place the loaf pans in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This indicates the bread is fully cooked.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the pans from the oven and allow the bread to cool for about 10 minutes. Then, gently remove the loaves from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
