Directions
- 1
Combine the warm water, milk, sugar, oil, eggs, salt, and yeast in a blender. Blend until smooth and well combined.
- 2
Pour the mixture into a large bowl. Gradually add the flour, stirring well after each addition, until you get a soft, slightly sticky dough.
- 3
Grease a large baking pan generously with butter or margarine. Spread the dough evenly into the pan.
- 4
Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- 5
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Bake for approximately 50 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
💡 Chef's Tip
For the softest crumb, use full-fat milk at room temperature. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor.
