5. Bake to perfection
Pour into prepared pan; smooth top lightly. Bake 40–45 minutes until:
✓ Top is deep golden brown
✓ Edges pull slightly from pan
✓ Toothpick inserted comes out clean
→ Rotate pan halfway for even browning.
6. Cool with care
Let cool in pan 10 minutes (critical for structure). Run knife around edges; invert onto wire rack. Cool completely before slicing (prevents gummy texture).
→ Optional shine: Brush warm loaf with melted butter.
