Directions

To make the ice-cream bread

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Add the self-rising flour and 2 tablespoons of sprinkles taking care not to over mix.

  4. 4

    Pour the batter into the prepared bread loaf pan, flatten with a spatula, and use a knife to score a shallow line down the center lengthwise to help the loaf rise evenly.

  5. 5

    Bake for 45 - 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and allow to cool the rest of the way on a cooling rack.

To make the vanilla icing

  1. 1

    Whisk the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla (maybe) until smooth.

  2. 2

    Pour over the cool cake and allow it to drizzle down the sides. Sprinkle over the remaining 1 tablespoon or sprinkles.

    Enjoy with a cup of tea. Store leftovers for up to three days in an airtight container.

This delightful dessert bread is incredibly versatile. While classic vanilla is a fantastic base, feel free to get creative!

We love adding a sprinkle of rainbow sprinkles to the batter for a fun, festive touch, especially if you're making this for a special occasion or just to brighten your day. To elevate it further, a simple powdered sugar glaze comes together in minutes, adding an extra layer of sweetness and a beautiful finish.

Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light dessert, this easy quick bread is a fantastic addition to any menu. Serve slices with your morning coffee or tea, or as a sweet ending to a meal.
