💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.

dried fruit

🥗Healthier: fresh fruit

💰Cheaper: raisins

Fresh fruit can be seasonal but adds a vibrant taste.

nuts

🥗Healthier: seeds

Seeds are often less expensive and nut-free.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a loaf pan with cooking spray or butter.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

Stir in buttermilk until the batter is smooth.

Fold in cornmeal for added texture.

Add any dried fruits or nuts if desired.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
