6. Bake:
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and serve:
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar if desired.
