Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

First, make your instant buttermilk. Pour 2 tablespoons of vinegar into a measuring cup. Pour enough milk on top of the vinegar to reach the 2 cup mark on the measuring cup. Let sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the following ingredients:

• 3 cups of all purpose flour
• 1 TBSP baking powder
• 1 ½ tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• ¼ cup sugar
• Stir these together with a fork until they are thoroughly mixed.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the following ingredients:
• 1 slightly beaten egg (not scrambled)
• Instant buttermilk (see instructions above)

Make a well in the dry ingredients. Add the egg and buttermilk mixture. Stir slowly until the dry is blended into the wet. The batter should be lumpy.

Melt ¼ cup butter. Stir the melted butter into the batter. Grease and flour a loaf pan. Cook at 325 degrees for 1 hour.
