Baking-powder bread

Ingredients :

500 g flour*
6 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. sugar
300-350 ml. milk*
1 1/2 tsp. salt
milk or egg for brushing
*or 400 g flour and
100 g wholewheat flour.
*or water and milk

Method :

Sieve together the dry ingredients, and add most of the milk. Knead until smooth, adding milk as needed. Form into a loaf and bake immediately. Make cuts into the loaf and brush it with milk or beaten egg before baking. Bread should be baked on the lowest rung in the oven, at 175°-200°C, for about an hour. It will be crusty and tastes best while warm.
