Honey Bread

I've been craving a peanut butter and jelly sandwich lately, so I figured I would pick up a loaf of gluten free bread at the store to get my fix. Unfortunately, I couldn't stomach the $6 price tag, so I decided to bake my own bread instead!

This aromatic loaf is the perfect canvas to build any type of sandwich, whether you're in the mood for something sweet (pb&j) or something savory (chicken salad), and could even be used to make french toast!


Honey Bread
Yield: 1 loaf

Ingredients
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray, line with parchment paper, and grease with nonstick cooking spray again; set aside.
  2. In stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. Mix instant coffee with boiling water; add to flour mixture.
  4. Blend in oil, honey, and eggs.
  5. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  6. Cover loosely with tin foil (to prevent over browning) and bake 30 minutes.
  7. Remove tin foil and cook additional 30-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.
  8. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes, then lift from pan, discard parchment, and transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Store wrapped in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil to keep fresh.
