Ingredients

All-purpose flour
Baking powder or baking soda
Salt
Sugar or honey
Milk or buttermilk
Eggs or plant-based substitutes
Oil or butter
Optional: Bananas, berries, chocolate chips, herbs, cheese, yogurt, seeds

Instructions

Choose your recipe type: sweet or savory, classic or dietary-friendly.
Mix dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, leavening agents, salt, sugar/spices.
In another bowl (or same one for one-bowl method), combine wet ingredients: milk, eggs, oil, etc.
Fold dry into wet until just combined—do not overmix.
Pour into a greased pan or form flatbread/muffins depending on recipe.
Bake according to type: 15–50 minutes at 350–400°F (or cook on skillet for flatbread).
Cool before slicing and serve warm or store properly for later.

Notes

For gluten-free versions, use a 1:1 GF flour blend and consider adding xanthan gum. For vegan loaves, swap eggs for flax eggs and dairy for plant milk. Always cool bread before slicing to avoid a gummy texture.
