White chocolate chips with peppermint extract in the bread, plus some extra crushed peppermint candy on top to give it some crunch. What else could we ask for?
Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C) and grease and flour a 9 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix in the white chocolate chips.
In a medium bowl beat together the egg, yogurt, milk, peppermint extract and oil until combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir just until combined.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan, bake for about 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
When ready, let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then sprinkle crushed peppermint candy on top of the loaf and transfer it onto a cooling rack to finish cooling completely. Enjoy!
