This is probably the simplest homemade bread recipe out there. And now.. it's in here

  • Average
  • Average budget

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 tsp yeast
  • 2 1/4c. warmed milk or milk/water mix (to babybath warm)
  • 3T. butter/oleo
  • 3T sugar
  • 1T salt
  • 5 to 6 cups flour (depends on weather, type of flour)

Preparation

Step 1

Warm the milk and add the butter. Add this to the yeast, sugar and salt.Put most of the flour to the mixing bowl and the salt. Add ALL the liquid and ingredients in there. Start mixer and add flour some at a time until dough pulls from sides of bowl and makes a “matadors hat” and is no longer sticky. Mix/knead until smooth and silky feeling..Let rise till double in size..punch down, divide in half and roll out to size and roll UP into bread shape. . Put into sprayed bread pans and cover LIGHTLY with plastic wrap or waxed paper and a kitchen towel. Let rise to desired height

Step 2

bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes the lower temp to 325 and bake about another 20 minutes. (I tell by the smell) The bread is done when it is golden brown on the top and sounds hollow when you tap it. If the sides are not browned enough for your liking remove from bread pan and let sit in OFF oven for about 5 more minutes.

This is BASIC ..as you go you will learn and develop your own little tricks and flavors to help make this recipe your own. I gotta go now and make some bread.
