Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350ºF (177ºC). Spray a 9" x 5" loaf pan with non-stick spray, then set aside.
In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and almond extracts, and sour cream or yogurt until everything is combined.
¼ cup (57g) unsalted butter, ⅔ cup (133g) granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 and ½ teaspoons vanilla extract, ¾ teaspoon almond extract, 8 ounces (226g) sour cream or full fat yogurt
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Carefully fold in the sprinkles and stir until evenly dispersed, being careful not to overmix the batter.
½ cup (50g) sprinkles
Spoon the batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 40-42 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely on a wire cooling rack before serving. Store leftovers covered at room temperature up to 4 days, or in the refrigerator for 1 week.
Notes
Room temperature ingredients: it's imperative to use room temperature ingredients so the batter incorporates more easily and stays smooth. Using cold ingredients with melted butter will make your batter lumpy and you'll need to stir it a lot, which can lead to a dense crumb.
Sprinkles: quins are the colorful discs, which will just melt into your batter. Non-pareils are the tiny beads, which will bleed into your batter. Use jimmies (the long rods).
