Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm milk 110°F or 43°C
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk
  • Loaf pan
  • Kitchen towel
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 to 10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  3. Add the melted butter to the yeast mixture, then gently stir in the flour mixture.
  4. Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead for about 8 to 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
  6. Punch down the risen dough to release air. Shape it into a loaf by rolling it tightly.
  7. Place the shaped loaf into a greased loaf pan. Cover it and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the loaf for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Notes

Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.
