## Ingredients

- 1.75 cups warm water
- 0.25 cup honey or sugar
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 2.5 teaspoons salt
- 4 cups bread flour

## Instructions

1. In a stand mixer bowl, combine warm water and honey. Sprinkle yeast over the mixture and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Add melted butter, beaten egg, salt, and 2 cups of bread flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until well combined.
3. Gradually add 2 more cups of bread flour, one cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition until a soft, slightly tacky dough forms.
4. If needed, add remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
5. Attach the dough hook and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
7. Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Roll each half into a 9x13 inch rectangle.
8. Roll up each rectangle tightly into a log, pinch seams to seal, and place in greased loaf pans, seam side down.
9. Cover and let rise for 30-45 minutes until the dough rises over the rim of the pan.
10. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
11. Remove from oven and let cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
