  • cup oil (200 ml)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat the oven to 200° C (392° F)
  • In a bowl, whisk four eggs. Add wet ingredients( yogurt, milk and oil) and mix them thoroughly. Add a tsp of salt and baking powder. Stir that all the ingredients combine.

  • Let it cool in the pan for ten minutes, then slice and serve while still warm. Enjoy!

NOTES

Ensure the oven is fully preheated to avoid a dense texture and a potentially soggy center. A properly heated oven also helps achieve a golden crust and even baking.
Organic, free-range eggs will give the bread a more intense yellow color and enhance the flavor.
Grease the parchment paper with oil before baking to make the bread’s bottom crunchier and more delicious.
Cover with parchment paper for the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent the top from burning.
Mixing cottage cheese with polenta and yogurt creates tender, fluffy bread. For different flavors, try other cheeses, like parmesan or mozzarella.
Small pieces of smoked bacon, sausage, or cooked ham enhance the savory taste.
Fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, or basil add aroma, while paprika, garlic powder, or chili flakes bring a spicy kick.
Incorporate small pieces of vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or spinach for a colorful, delicious treat.
