Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Egg
Binds the batter and adds structure as it sets in the oven.
Whole-wheat flour
Forms the main structure of the loaf and adds a nutty, hearty texture.
Baking powder
Releases gas during baking so the loaf rises and becomes light.
Vegetable oil
Adds fat that keeps the crumb moist and tender.
Liquid honey
Sweetens the loaf and helps it stay moist and browned.
Kiwifruit pulp
Adds moisture and fruity acidity to the batter.
