Croatian Quick Milk Bread – Easy Bread Recipes Without Yeast

Sometimes you just want bread without a lot of fuss—and that’s where this quick Croatian milk bread steps in. It skips the yeast, skips the rising time, and still gives you a warm, golden loaf that smells like home. I stumbled on this recipe on a busy weeknight when our bread stash vanished and I didn’t have the patience for dough drama. The smell of it baking—oh my goodness—took over the kitchen, and it came out soft inside, crusty outside, and begging for a dab of butter. What I love most is how flexible it is. Whether you're into sweet easy recipes, dreaming of butter swim biscuits, or hunting for something to complete your easy recipes for dinner list, this little loaf's got you. And don’t worry—it fits in just fine next to air fryer cookies or even those cheesy potato casseroles. One bowl, one pan, no stress. If you're into food receipt easy recipes that don't eat up your whole evening, this one's for you.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. Pour in the milk and oil. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Don’t overmix.
  4. Scoop the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top.
  5. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  6. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely—or eat it warm with butter, because why not?
