Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F, grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan, and set it aside.

Step 5

Add dry ingredients (2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp salt). Using a spatula, fold it in.

Step 7

Bake at 350°F for about 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
