Equipment
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 whisk
- 1 wooden spoon or spatula
- 1 loaf pan (9x5 inches)
- 1 oven
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
- In another bowl, beat together the milk, vegetable oil, and egg until mixed.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Grease the loaf pan with a bit of oil or cooking spray.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes
You can add herbs, cheese, or spices to the batter for additional flavor.
This bread is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
It also toasts well, making it perfect for sandwiches or alongside soups and salads.
