Spread the batter out into the prepared loaf pan. Bake until the bread has risen and the center springs back when lightly touched, 58 to 65 minutes. Test with a toothpick to make sure there is no uncooked batter in the center. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire cooling rack. Run a knife around the edges before turning out and slicing.
