5 Preheat the oven to 350℉(175℃).
6 Grease an 8-inch (20cm) loaf pan with oil and line with an overhang of baking paper.
7 In a medium sized bowl combine milk and vinegar, let it sit for 15 min until it is slightly curdled.
8 Add light brown sugar, oil and vanilla, and mix properly with a hand whisk until sugar is dissolved.

10 Add the dry ingredients (all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt) to the liquid ingredients.
11 Mix with a whisk until combined.
12 Add warm water and mix to form a smooth batter.
13 Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
