Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a 9×5 loaf pan with oil and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easier lifting.
Warm the milk in a small saucepan or microwave until it feels just warm to the touch without being hot.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well mixed.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warmed milk and oil. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon until fully incorporated. The dough should be sticky and thick.
Scrape the dough into the prepared loaf pan using a rubber spatula and smooth the surface.
Bake at 425°F for 13-15 minutes, then reduce to 350°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 30 minutes. Brush the top with melted butter in the last 5 minutes of baking.
Check the bread with an instant-read thermometer; it should register 200–205°F (93–96°C). If no thermometer is available, ensure a skewer or toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the bread from the oven, lift it out using the parchment, and cool it on a wire rack for at least 45 minutes for clean slices.

Notes

Use unbleached flour for a better texture.
Ensure that the milk is warm but not hot to achieve the desired tenderness.
Cool the bread completely before slicing to avoid crumbling.
