Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and sugar, stirring until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla and buttermilk.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
Fold in the sprinkles carefully, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
