Honey loaf recipe

There’s a wide variety of cakes, cookies, pies, and breads out there. Whether it’s a cake or a pastry, it all begins with bread. However, we encourage you to sample all of the thousands of varieties of bread available. Sweeter breads like this honey loaf recipe only need 10 minutes of active time in the kitchen before they go into the oven. Put some cheese on top and have it with your morning tea; it’ll make a fantastic breakfast.

Honey loaf tips

It’s simple to make the dough, and if you don’t have candied orange peel on hand, you can substitute a few grates of lemon zest. Instead of honey, you might try adding some finely chopped honeycomb or crushed almonds. In place of more powdered sugar, you may give the loaf a glossy sheen by brushing it with butter or warm honey as soon as it comes out of the oven. Use as a base for French toast, or eat as is.

This honey loaf is a great option if you’re a bread baker looking to expand your repertoire. Perfect for breakfast or tea time.
