Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a standard loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.
- Cut ripe, seedless watermelon into chunks and place them in a blender. Blend until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the watermelon puree, sugar, melted butter, and eggs (or vegan substitute). Mix until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
- Fold in optional mix-ins like raisins or chocolate chips.
- Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center.
- Once baked, cool the loaf in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes
Choose seedless watermelon to avoid bitterness. Adjust sweetness based on watermelon flavor. Avoid overmixing for a light crumb.
