Soft and fluffy bread

1. Cool and Serve
   • Let the bread cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Here are some variations you can try with the soft and fluffy bread recipe:

1. Herbed Bread: Add dried herbs like rosemary, thyme, or oregano to the dough for a fragrant loaf. You can mix in about 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite herbs.

1. Cheese Bread: Incorporate shredded cheese like cheddar or mozzarella into the dough before the first rise. This will give the bread a cheesy flavor and a nice texture.

1. Garlic Bread: Mix in minced garlic or garlic powder into the dough for a savory garlic bread. You can also brush the top with garlic butter before baking.

1. Cinnamon Raisin Bread: Add 1-2 teaspoons of cinnamon and 1 cup of raisins to the dough for a sweet twist. This variation is great for breakfast or snacks.

1. Whole Wheat Bread: Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier option. You may need to adjust the liquid slightly to accommodate the different flour.
