This 20-Minute Homemade Bread is a quick and simple recipe that delivers fresh, soft, and delicious bread in no time. No yeast, kneading, or long rising time required!

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon butter, melted (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Add the milk and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently for about 1 minute until smooth.
  5. Shape the dough into a round loaf or divide it into smaller rolls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Brush the tops with melted butter for a golden finish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  8. Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the bread in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap. It will stay fresh at room temperature for 2-3 days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze the bread for up to 3 months. Wrap it well in plastic wrap and foil before freezing. To reheat, thaw at room temperature and warm in the oven for a few minutes.
  • Reheating: To reheat, place the bread in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes, until warm.
