Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a small loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add milk and olive oil (or melted butter) and stir until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Shape the dough into a small round loaf on the baking sheet or gently press it into a loaf pan.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spreads!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use melted butter instead of olive oil.
- For extra texture, add shredded cheese, dried herbs, or nuts.
- To make rolls, divide the dough into smaller portions and bake for 10–12 minutes.
- Store at room temperature for 2 days, refrigerate for 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
