Ingredients
- Fresh parsnips
- 1 cup, grated
- Fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
- All-purpose flour
- 2 cups
- Baking powder
- 2 teaspoons
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Eggs
- 2, large
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Olive oil
- 1/4 cup
- Honey
- 1/4 cup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan with non-stick spray or olive oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated parsnips and chopped rosemary, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, olive oil, and honey. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the parsnips and rosemary, stirring gently to combine.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; this helps maintain a light and airy texture.
- Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even bake.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Tips
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans for a delightful crunch.
- If you prefer a sweeter bread, increase the honey to 1/3 cup.
- This bread can be served warm or toasted, and pairs beautifully with soft cheeses or even a spread of butter.
