  • Total Time: 60 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup mead
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. In one bowl, mix the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients: honey, mead, and eggs.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes.
  6. Check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
