Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream the melted unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and buttermilk.
- Slowly combine the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just mixed.
- Fold in the red and green sprinkles carefully.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top and adding coarse sugar if desired.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
- Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
