  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure your bread is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is done.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
