Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1 lime
  • 1/2 cup finely diced candied ginger
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 8 Tbs. (1 stick) unsalted butter,< melted and cooled
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 350°F. Lightly grease an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan. 
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the orange, lemon and lime zests and the candied ginger and toss to distribute evenly.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, butter and vanilla. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until the top of the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes. Turn the loaf out onto the rack and let cool completely before serving. Makes 1 loaf.
