The aroma is a big giveaway. If your kitchen smells amazing, chances are your quick bread turned out well.

Easy peasy! When it comes to quick bread, look for a golden-brown crust, a nice rise, and a toothpick that comes out clean when you poke it in the center. And of course, that heavenly aroma filling your kitchen is a sure sign of success! Enjoy!

I also like to check the texture by gently pressing the top – it should spring back nicely. And don't forget about the crumb! It should be moist and tender without being gummy. Plus, if you can resist, letting it cool completely before slicing helps lock in all that goodness.

A winning quick bread has a golden crust, moist and tender crumb, and rises evenly without being too dense. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, indicating it's perfectly baked.
