7. Pour the batter on the prepared pan. (for the cupcake pan, fill half of the cup for each bread, because it will rise while you bake it)

8. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F or 170 degree C. Then put the pan in the middle rack and bake it for around 50-55 minutes or until the bread is golden brown in color (to avoid over bake of your bread star to check it after 30-35 minutes. Insert a tooth pick into the bread, if it comes out clean then your bread is done).
