Tips:

  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the bread rise in a warm place: This will help the bread to rise properly and give it a light and fluffy texture.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature: This will give the bread a crispy crust and a soft and tender interior.
  • Serve the bread warm or at room temperature: This is when it will be at its best.
