Notes
Recipe Notes
- Use room-temperature eggs to avoid clumping your batter.
- Avoid opening the oven too often because you want the temperature to be consistent. Otherwise, your bread may collapse or turn flat.
- To check if your bread is done, stick a toothpick into the batter, and if it comes out clean, then it is done.
- To avoid the batter sticking into the pan, you can use parchment paper on the bottom of the loaf pan or use a silicone pan or greased aluminum or glass pan before pouring the batter.
- You can store your leftover bread on the countertop for 3-5 days or freezer for up to 3 months. Be sure to slice them individually before freezing. I use a glass container with a lid or aluminum foil for extra fresh bread.
