Method
 

How to Make No-Oven Stovetop Bread
  1. Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm milk or water, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. Mix the dough: In a large bowl, add the flour and salt. Pour in the activated yeast mixture and oil/butter. Stir and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth.
  3. Let the dough rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 50-60 minutes until doubled.
  4. Cook the bread: Heat a skillet over low heat, grease it, shape the dough into a loaf, and cook covered for about 15 minutes until golden.
  5. Flip and finish: Carefully flip the bread and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the second side is golden and sounds hollow.
