Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and maple syrup until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy on its own or with a smear of butter!
