Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in any of the optional add-ins to create your own version of this delicious bread. I highly recommend nuts & chocolate chips.
4. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth top. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until tester inserted into center comes out clean. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool for 10 minutes, then carefully invert, remove bread from pan and place back on wire rack to cool completely. Cut into 12 slices.
