Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for another 30-40 minutes, or until the dough has risen just above the top of the pans.
Bake the Bread:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
Brush the tops of the loaves with a mixture of milk and olive oil to help them brown and create a crispy crust.
Bake the bread for 30-40 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Cool and Serve:
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pans for a few minutes.
Transfer the loaves to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
