¾ cup granulated sugar

½ cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)

2 large eggs

1 tsp baking soda

½ tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground cinnamon

4. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined—don’t overmix.

5. Pour batter into the loaf pan and smooth the top.

6. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

7. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
