6. Transfer to batter into a prepared bread loaf (check notes) and bake in the middle rack for about 50-55 mins.


7. While baking, in the midway about 25-30 mins , cover the pan with aluminum foil to prevent the top layer from getting burnt.

Enjoy baking!




NOTES AND TIPS
  • To prepare the pan, use a teaspoon of vegetable oil and brush the pan evenly. you may dust it with some dry flour or simply use a lining of parchment paper for the bottom for easy removal. The oil will help keep the liner in place.
  • This bread keeps well refrigerated, after 24 hours but ours was over on the same day ;)


Have a pleasant and memorable year ahead!
