Preparation Steps

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, making sure each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
• Mix in the vanilla extract.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
• Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
• Bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
