How to Make Quick 20 Minute Bread
1: Preheat and Prep
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3: Add Wet Ingredients
Pour in the milk and melted butter.
Stir until a sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
4: Bake
Spoon the dough into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5: Cool and Serve
Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer to a rack, cool slightly, slice, and enjoy warm or toasted.
