Easy Yogurt Chocolate Chip Bread
Description
This chocolate chip bread starts with a blend of cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, and optional ground walnuts. The wet mix comprises vegetable oil, sugar, Greek yogurt, milk, and eggs. Combining the wet and dry ingredients carefully preserves a tender crumb without excess gluten development. The batter is poured into a greased and floured loaf pan and baked at 340°F (170°C) for 30 to 35 minutes, monitored with a toothpick for doneness.
The finished loaf is soft with a slight tang from the yogurt, studded with melted chocolate bits and occasional nutty crunch. It slices easily and pairs well with tea or coffee. Dusting with powdered sugar can add a gentle sweetness and decorative touch.
