White Bread

Ingredients

  • 2 cups warm milk
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon yeast
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 cups flour

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine milk, sugar and yeast in a bowl and let sit for about 5 - 10 minutes. If it does not foam up, the yeast did "wake up" and you will need to try again.
  2. 2 Once the yeast milk mixture is ready combine all ingredients together and knead for about 10 minutes. You may need a bit more flour, you do not want the dough too sticky.
  3. 3 Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rise for about 1 - 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size.
  4. 4 On a lightly floured surface, pour dough out and cut in half. Flatten your dough out into a rectangle with your fingers. You don't want the dough too thin.
  5. 5 Roll into the shape of a log and place seam side down into a greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.
  6. 6 Preheat your oven to 350 and bake for 25-30 minutes. Once done, brush the top with butter and let completely cool until slicing.
