Notes
- Try to use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour to bake bread if possible. Bread flour has more protein than all-purpose flour, which produces more gluten. The higher amount of gluten in bread flour leads to a more elastic dough.
- When baking homemade bread, it's best to use a precision scale to weigh the ingredients. This will prevent overpacking of flour, resulting in a denser bread than desired.
- Use a good quality matcha powder to enhance the overall fragrance of the matcha milk loaf.
- Allow the baked bread to cool completely before slicing.
- Do not open the bread machine lid when the bread dough is in the cycle of proofing and baking.
