Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, vegetable oil, warm milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold until just combined.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and level the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean; check for doneness around 40 minutes.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, slice and serve plain or with your choice of toppings.

Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for best results. Avoid overmixing to keep the loaf light and airy. For extra moisture, consider brushing the warm loaf with sweetened milk after baking.
