In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Separately, prepare the wet ingredients:

In another bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter, 1/2 cup of milk, and 1 egg until fully combined.
2. Mix the Ingredients
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir gently using a wooden spoon or spatula until a soft dough begins to form.
Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky yet manageable.
3. Shape the Dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Knead it gently for about 1 minute until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
Shape the dough into a flat disc or a round ball, depending on the size and shape of your skillet.
4. Heat the Skillet
Preheat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over low-medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of butter or oil to prevent sticking.
Allow the skillet to heat evenly for a few minutes.
5. Cook the Bread
Place the shaped dough into the preheated skillet and cover it with a lid. This traps heat, mimicking an oven-like environment.
Cook the bread for 7-10 minutes on one side, checking occasionally to ensure it doesn’t burn. Once the bottom turns a golden brown, carefully flip the bread.

Cook the other side for another 7-10 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Check for Doneness
To ensure the bread is fully cooked, insert a toothpick or skewer into the center. If it comes out clean, your bread is ready to serve.
7. Cool and Serve
Remove the bread from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly on a wire rack.
Slice and serve warm with your favorite spreads like butter, jam, or honey.
