Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup molasses
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the molasses, milk, Greek yogurt, and melted butter until smooth.
Step 4
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into it. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
