  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup warm milk or dairy-free alternative
  • 2 tbsp butter melted (or dairy-free option)
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Mix using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (or by hand) for 2-3 minutes until the batter is smooth.
  • Let the Dough Rise:
  • Transfer the dough to a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Cover with a clean towel and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Bake the Bread:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and firm on top.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
