Step 1: Activate the Yeast

In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a separate large bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

Add the flour and salt to the wet mixture, then pour in the activated yeast. Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the batter for about 5 minutes. The dough will be thick but sticky—more like a batter than traditional bread dough.

Step 4: Let It Rise

Spoon the dough into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula dipped in water. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes until it reaches just over the rim.

Step 5: Bake

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown and the top sounds hollow when tapped. If it browns too quickly, loosely tent with foil in the last 10 minutes.

Step 6: Cool and Slice

Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing (this helps the texture set!).
