Quick & Easy Bread in 20 Minutes

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 Tbsp sugar
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup warm water
• 2 Tbsp olive oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add warm water and olive oil. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2–3 minutes.
5. Shape into a loaf and place on a greased baking sheet.
6. Cut 3 slits on top of the dough.
7. Bake for 15–18 minutes until golden brown.

Tips for best results:

• Don’t over-knead — just enough to bring it together.
• The dough will be sticky; a little extra flour on your hands helps.
• Best eaten the same day (this is a quick bread, so it doesn’t stay soft as long as yeast bread).

Enjoy your fast homemade bread!
