Homemade Sandwich Bread
Directions
- 1In a mixing bowl, whisk together warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for at least 5 minutes until bubbles form.
- 2Add flour and salt to the mixture.
- 3Knead the dough for 5 minutes using a mixer, or 10 minutes by hand. If the dough is too liquid, add more flour. If too dry, add more milk.
- 4Add melted butter to the dough and continue kneading.
- 5Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a wet towel, and let rise until doubled in size (about an hour).
- 6Punch down the risen dough to release air.
- 7Lightly dust a surface with flour and place the dough on it.
- 8Pat and roll the dough out. Roll it up like a burrito.
- 9Place the rolled dough into a greased loaf pan.
- 10Let the dough rise for a second time for 45 minutes.
- 11Bake covered at 350°F for 20 minutes.
- 12Remove the cover from the loaf pan and increase the oven temperature to 375-400°F. Bake for another 8-10 minutes, until desired crust color is achieved.
- 13Remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing.
