  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense loaf of bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help the bread rise evenly and prevent it from spreading out too much.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help prevent the bread from crumbling.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze the bread for up to 2 months.
