Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Create a well in the center, add 3/4 cup of warm water and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and stir gently until a soft dough forms.
  4. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
  5. Shape the dough into a round or oval loaf and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Score the top with shallow cuts to allow steam to escape.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
