Course: Breakfast

1 Cup Milk (240 ml) Use any milk you prefer; for a vegan option, substitute with almond milk, soy milk, or any plant-based milk of your choice.
1/4 Cup Olive Oil (60 ml) You can also use canola oil, sunflower oil, or melted butter if preferred. This will add moisture and help with the bread’s texture.
3 Tablespoons Sugar (45 g) Provides a touch of sweetness to the bread. Adjust the amount if you prefer less sweetness.
1 Teaspoon Salt (5 g) Enhances the flavor of the bread. Don’t skip this step as salt is essential for taste.
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder (15 g) Acts as a leavening agent to help the bread rise and become soft.
2 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour (320 g) You can use almond flour for a low-carb version, but note that the texture may differ slightly from traditional bread.

Preparation

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk and olive oil. Stir in the sugar until fully dissolved.
Add Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Prepare the Dough: The dough will be thick and slightly lumpy. Pour it into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake the Bread: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve: Slice and enjoy your quick and easy soft bread warm or at room temperature. It pairs well with soups, salads, or simply a pat of your favorite spread.
