Ingredients (2-ingredient bread + self-rising flour substitute)

Main recipe (if using self-rising flour)

• Self-rising flour: 2 cups
• Milk: 1 1/4 cups
  • Whole milk recommended for best texture and flavor
  • Lower-fat milk or milk alternatives can be used

If you don’t have self-rising flour (make your own)

For 2 cups all-purpose flour:

• All-purpose flour: 2 cups
• Baking powder: 1 tablespoon (or 3 teaspoons)
• Salt: 1/2 teaspoon (any salt is fine)

Note from subtitles: use baking powder, not baking soda.

Equipment / Prep

• Bowl
• Spoon or rubber spatula
• Bread loaf pan (she uses a cast iron bread loaf pan)
• Oven

Preheating

• Set oven to 350°F

Pan prep (for cast iron)

• Oil well so nothing sticks:
  • Oil: about 1 tablespoon, rubbed on sides and bottom

Method (with key timing/temperature cues)

1. Preheat oven to 350°F
   • Stated as the longest step.
2. Make self-rising flour (only if needed):
   • In a bowl, stir together:
     • 2 cups all-purpose flour
     • 1 tablespoon baking powder (or 3 tsp)
     • 1/2 tsp salt
3. Combine ingredients:
   • Add 1 1/4 cups milk to 2 cups self-rising flour.
   • Mix until just combined.
   • Important technique cue: don’t overmix— it can make the bread tough.
4. Fill pan:
   • Pour the thick batter into the loaf pan and spread evenly.
5. Bake:
   • Bake at 350°F for 35–40 minutes.
   • Bake until browned as you want it (it won’t brown as much as yeast bread).
6. Finish / serve:
   • Turn the loaf out while it’s hot.
   • Expect a smaller loaf, more like biscuit bread than a highly risen yeast loaf.

Tips / Cautions (from subtitles)

• Mix only until combined: overmixing can make the bread tough.
• Expect low rise: don’t expect a “highly risen yeast bread” look; it’s meant to be smaller and biscuit-like.
• Whole milk is best for texture and flavor, but lower-fat milk or alternatives work.

Serving Suggestions (from subtitles)

• Good as a side for dinner
• Works with egg salad
• Breakfast option: jam and butter
