INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-heat the oven to 350 Degrees.
Add all of the dry ingredients to a large bowl mix, combine, and set the bowl aside.
Add all of the wet ingredients to an even larger bowl, and use aa hand mixer to combine those ingredients.
Once the wet ingredients are combined, add the dry ingredients, and use the hand mixer to combine the wet and dry ingredients together.
When everything is incorporated into one another – and a batter has formed – pour the batter into a 8.5in. X 4.5in. loaf pan lined with parchment paper, and coat the paper with baking spray.
Bake for around 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Let the loaf cool in the tray, and while it’s cooling mix the glaze ingredients together in a small dish.
When the loaf has cooled completely, remove the loaf from the tray, and add the glaze to the top of the loaf.
Let the glaze set on top of the loaf, and once set, cut the loaf into 12 slices.
