Safety Tips & Important Notes

Follow these for best results and safety.

  1. Do not overmix the batter - a few lumps are fine and will result in a more tender bread
  2. The bread is done when it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom
  3. For extra flavor, add 1 teaspoon dried herbs like rosemary or thyme to the dry ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, oil, and egg until well combined.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined - do not overmix.

  5. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top gently.

  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

  8. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
