LAZY MAN'S BREAD (NO-KNEAD BREAD)

Steps:

• Melt the butter and warm up the milk. Microwaving each for 30 seconds is enough.
• In a medium bowl, mix butter, milk and eggs.
• In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Mix the wet mixture until dough is form and no dry spots remain. It's a very wet dough, so use a spoon or spatula. Don't try to mix it using your hands.
• Let it rest for 1 hour, covered with a damp kitchen towel.
• Place into baking pan. You can use a large loaf pan, or two medium. Grease the loaf pan first with butter or cooking spray.
• Let it rest for 30 minutes on the loaf pan while you preheat your oven to 375°F.
• Bake bread for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is nicely golden.
• Wait 10 minutes to serve. No need to wait for more than 10 minutes for this bread. Have it still warm, with lots of butter or whatever your heart desires!
