Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth batter forms.

Pour in the heavy cream and continue mixing until fully incorporated and the batter is light and fluffy.
Step 8
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
