  • 1 c. vegetable oil

  • 2/3 c. water

  4. Cool for 10 minutes and remove from pan to wire rack.

Notes

  • How do you tell when it is done?
  • You'll want to look for the bread to start pulling away from the pan. Another way to test if quick bread is done is to use a toothpick and insert it in the middle of the bread loaf. It should come out with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
  • You could also use an instant read thermometer to test the internal temperature, which should be 190 degrees F.
  • Why didn't it rise?
  • If you overfill your loaf pan your it may not rise. This is because the batter reaches the top of the pan, still needs to rise and then collapses.
  • Another reason could be that you leavening agent (baking soda) is stale. Check your expiration date!
  • How long is it good for?
  • Cover you bread with plastic wrap or place in a plastic bag once it is cool to prevent it from drying out.
  • If you properly store it your bread will last 1-2 days at room temperature.
  • If you store it in the refrigerator it will last up to 1 week.
  • How to Freeze
  • Another option is to freeze the bread. First, wrap cooled bread tightly with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap and then place in a heavy duty freezer bag. You can store it in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.
