How to Make Cherry Chocolate Chip Bread
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon almond extract and 1 cup milk.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in 1 cup chopped cherries, ¾ cup chocolate chips, and ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional).
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy warm, cold, or reheated! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
