Allow it to preheat, and in a small casserole dish, melt 2 tbsp of butter. Place in the oven while it is heating up and allow the butter to melt. Leave in the oven until it is completely melted.

Once your oven is finished preheating, remove your pan from the oven. Please be cautious and wear heat-resistant gloves while doing this step. It will be extremely hot.
Add in your wet mixture and place in the oven, and bake for 30 minutes.

You can remove out of the oven once it does not jiggle in the middle, is completely golden brown, or put a fork in the middle of the pan of bread. If the fork comes out clean, it is done. If it doesn’t, then continue to bake.

Once your bread is completed, allow it to cool, or you can cut and enjoy it with some butter. It is very yummy warm!
ENJOY!
