Cooking Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon (if using) until well combined.

In another bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

If you're adding raisins or nuts, fold them into the batter gently. Once incorporated, pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, you can cover it loosely with aluminum foil.

Once done, remove the pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the best results, make sure to measure your ingredients accurately to achieve the right texture. Additionally, allowing the sweet bread to cool completely before slicing will help maintain its structure and prevent it from crumbling.

Feel free to experiment with different spices or add-ins to create your perfect sweet bread flavor!
