Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1 teaspoon SAF Instant Yeast (this is what I use)
  • 1 teaspoon Dough Enhancer (optional-it makes the bread fluffy)
  • 1/2 scant teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 4 tablespoons water
  • 1-3/4 to 2 cups white flour (I use bread flour)
Instructions
  1. Grease a 7.75 x 3.75 x 2.75-inch bread pan and set it aside. Grab a bowl and a Danish Whisk.

  2. Dump everything in a large mixing bowl. Stir until mixed thoroughly. Add additional flour to the dough if it is too sticky. Do not add too much; we want the dough to make fluffy loaves.

  3. Flour your countertop and scoop the dough out onto the countertop. Knead for about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Roll the dough out and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in the greased bread pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a warm wet towel. Let rise for about an hour.

  5. Preheat the oven to 350°F = (176°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until slightly browned.

  6. Lightly butter the top after baking if you want a soft crust. I use a baggie slathered with butter to spread on the top. Let it cool. Store in a bag to keep the bread soft. Enjoy.
