How to make

Fit your stand mixer with the paddle attachment and pour the warm milk, water, sugar, and yeast into the mixing bowl. Cover with a towel and allow the yeast to activate for 5 minutes.

1

Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add another cup of flour, beating on medium speed for another 30 seconds before adding the remaining flour.

2

Beat the dough for another 2 minutes to knead the dough so that it becomes stretchy and smooth.

3

Grease a large bowl with melted butter or olive oil and place the dough inside, covering it with plastic wrap.

4

Leave the bowl in a warm place for around 2 hours until the bread dough has doubled in size.

5

Once the bread dough has risen, punch it down with your hands.

6

Transfer it to a lightly floured surface, and roll the dough out to fit your loaf pan.

7

Grease the loaf pan and place the bread dough inside. Cover with a towel or wrap and let the dough rise again for around an hour. The dough should rise above the loaf pan.

8

Press the bread dough with your finger to see if it leaves a fingerprint. If it does without springing back, it is ready for baking.

9

Bake bread for 30 - 35 minutes until the top becomes golden brown.

10

Remove the fresh bread from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 - 10 minutes before slicing and serving with butter, or let it completely cool.

Cooking Tips

Use room temperature water and milk to help the yeast activate.

01

If the internal temperature reads 195°F (90°C), the bread is cooked.

You can make this with just your hands and a wooden spoon!
