Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix in vanilla.
  4. Gradually mix in the flour mixture and buttermilk alternately until just combined.
