  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2% for richness)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (enhances sweetness)

The Star of the Show

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

3. Combine Wet Ingredients

  • In another bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.

4. Bring It All Together

  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined (don’t overmix!).
  • Gently fold in 1 cup of Fruity Pebbles, saving the rest for topping.

5. Bake to Golden Perfection

  • Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup Fruity Pebbles on top for extra color and crunch.
  • Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

6. Cool & Slice
