🍬 Fruity Pebbles Bread 🍬
Ingredients
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (for moisture and tang)
1 ¼ cups granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
½ cup vegetable oil (or unsweetened applesauce for a lighter option)
3 large eggs (room temperature for best results)
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
2 teaspoons baking powder (for a perfect rise)
2 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even baking and a golden crust.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, sugar, vegetable oil (or applesauce), eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.
Add Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the salt, baking powder, and flour. Stir until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Fold in the Fun: Carefully fold in the Fruity Pebbles cereal, reserving a small handful for the topping. This ensures every bite is packed with colorful, crunchy goodness.
Prepare the Pan: Lightly spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray. For easy removal, line the pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides.
Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the reserved cereal on top. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges are golden brown.
Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Tips
Cereal Freshness: For the best texture, use fresh Fruity Pebbles cereal. Stale cereal can lose its crunch during baking.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
