Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy.

Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the activated yeast mixture, milk, and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

Shape the Dough: Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape it into a round loaf or divide it into smaller portions for individual breads.

Second Rise: Cover the shaped dough with a clean towel and let it rise again for 30 minutes.

Cook the Bread: Heat a large non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-low heat. Lightly grease the skillet with olive oil. Place the dough in the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. Flip the bread, cover again, and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.

Serve: Remove the bread from the skillet and let it cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm with butter, jam, or your favorite spread!
