Expert Tips

Wrap the cooled loaf and store at room temperature overnight for easier slicing. Most quick breads slice better the second day. A sharp serrated knife or an electric knife works well for slicing quick breads.

    I've made this bread twice now. We love the taste but I cannot get it to rise very much. I bought a new can of baking powder but it didn't help very much. Any suggestions?
