- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan.
- Dry Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add Feta and Thyme:
- Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese and fresh thyme leaves into the dry ingredients.
- Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, olive oil, and honey until well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are some lumps.
- Fill the Loaf Pan:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool:
- Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optional: Garnish with Thyme and Honey:
- If desired, drizzle a bit of honey over the top of the loaf and sprinkle extra thyme leaves for garnish.
- Slice and Serve:
- Once the loaf has cooled, slice it and serve. Enjoy the delicious combination of feta, thyme, and honey in every bite.
This loaded loaf makes for a great side dish, snack, or even a light lunch. The savory notes of feta and thyme combined with the sweetness of honey create a well-balanced and flavorful treat.
