Discover how to make delicious homemade bread in just 10 minutes with this simple microwave recipe! No need for an oven; all you need are a few basic ingredients and a microwave oven to whip up fresh, warm bread whenever the craving strikes.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or melted butter
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
- Add the milk and vegetable oil (or melted butter) to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture forms a smooth batter.
- Grease a microwave-safe container or mug with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Pour the batter into the prepared container, ensuring it’s no more than halfway full to allow room for rising.
- Place the container in the microwave and cook on high power for 2-3 minutes, depending on the wattage of your microwave.
- Check the bread for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is ready. If not, continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until fully cooked.
- Carefully remove the container from the microwave (it will be hot!) and let the bread cool for a minute or two.
- Once cooled slightly, turn the bread out onto a plate and slice as desired. Enjoy your freshly baked microwave bread!
Note: Experiment with adding herbs, spices, or cheese to the batter for added flavor variations. This versatile recipe is perfect for quick sandwiches, toast, or simply enjoying on its own.
