Quick Loaf Breads

Quick breads are any type of bread that uses a leavening agent (baking powder) for the lift and rise in a recipe instead of yeast. Quick breads also include muffins and biscuits and scones but for simplicity’s sake this Quick Loaf Breads category is all baked non-yeast loaves and breads like zucchini bread and banana bread.
