Ingredients
- 1 c. water warm
- ¼ c. whole milk warm
- 7 g/1 whole packet of yeast
- 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 1 ½ tsp. salt
- 3 1/3 c. bread flour/strong flour plus extra as needed
Instructions
- Whisk the warm water, warm milk, whole packet of yeast, and granulated sugar together in a large bowl. Cover and allow to sit in a warm place for 5 minutes.
- Add butter, salt, and 1 cup of flour and mix with a spatula or wooden spoon. Once incorporated add another cup of flour. Mix that in. Add the last 1 1/3c. of flour into the mix and stir. There might still be chunks of butter, but that is ok.
- Knead on a floured surface for about 8 minutes adding flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking to the surface. If dough becomes too sticky, add about 1 tsp. of flour at a time.
- Form into a ball.
- Time for the first rise. Lightly grease a mixing bowl with either olive oil or non-stick spray and cover the dough in a very light coating of oil. Place dough inside the bowl and cover with plastic wrap and a clean tea towel. Place somewhere warm and let rise for about 2 hours or until doubled in size.
- When the dough is finished rising, punch the dough down to release any trapped air inside of the dough. Pour dough out onto a lightly floured workspace. Lightly flour a rolling pin and your hands. Roll dough out into the shape of a rectangle. About 8”x15”. Make sure that width can fit into your loaf tin. Eye up the dough width with your loaf pan.
- Once the dough is rolled out, into a rectangle roll up the dough into an 8” log and place into your greased loaf tin.
- This is your second proofing. Cover the dough with either plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or a clean, tea towel and place somewhere warm for 1 hour. The dough should rise about an inch higher than the loaf pan.
- Preheat oven to 350℉/175℃/Gas Mark 4. Use the lowest oven rack in your oven to prevent the top of your loaf of bread from burning.
- Bake your bread for about 30-34 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool in the pan before slicing.
- Slice and enjoy!
