Gradually add sugar to butter, 2 tablespoon at a time, beating on medium to high speed about 6 minutes total or until very light and fluffy.

Add vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, beating 1 minute after each addition, scraping bowl often.

Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating on low to medium speed just until combined.

Pour batter into a greased and floured 9×5×3-inch loaf pan.

Bake in a 325℉ (160℃) oven for 55 to 65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
