YIELD:
1 Loaf
Hazelnut Bread
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup hazelnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
METHOD / INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Once cooled, rub them in a kitchen towel to remove the skins. Roughly chop and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the chopped hazelnuts.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
- Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top.
- Bake at 350°F for 40–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
