  • 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes not packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 1/2 Tablespoons  grape-seed oil can use extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/4 cups buttermilk

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 and grease an 8×4 inch bread pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well.
  3. Add the basil, mozzarella and sun-dried tomatoes to the four and mix until all incorporated.
