Anti-Inflammatory Highlights
Whole Milk: Provides clean, bioavailable protein, calcium, and essential nutrients to support bone health and metabolic balance.
Minimal Processing: Requires no complex fermentation or artificial additives, offering a wholesome, straightforward homemade baked option.
Ingredients
2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/2 cups milk (whole milk or your preferred type)
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon butter or milk (for brushing, optional)
Pinch of salt (optional)
Instructions
1. Prep the Oven & Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease or line a small loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour, sugar, and optional pinch of salt.
3. Add Milk: Pour in the whole milk and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon just until a sticky dough forms (do not overmix).
4. Transfer to Pan: Spoon and smooth the soft dough evenly into your prepared loaf pan.
5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is deeply golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Brush & Cool: Remove from the oven and immediately brush the top with 1 tablespoon of melted butter or milk for a soft, glossy crust. Let cool completely before slicing and serving!
