Description

This classic homemade white bread recipe yields two soft, fluffy mini loaves with a tender crumb and a beautifully golden crust. Made with simple pantry staples like all-purpose flour, milk, butter, and active dry yeast, it captures the nostalgic aroma of fresh-baked bread filling your kitchen. The addition of warm milk and butter creates a rich, slightly sweet flavor profile that pairs perfectly with soups, sandwiches, or simply served with a pat of butter. Ideal for family dinners or weekend baking projects, this bread is approachable for beginners yet satisfying for experienced bakers. It slices easily and stays soft for days, making it a reliable staple for any household. Enjoy the satisfaction of pulling warm, fragrant loaves from the oven and sharing that homemade goodness with friends and family.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine yeast, sugar, and warm water in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy to activate the yeast.
  3. Add 1-1/2 cups of flour, salt, warm milk, and 2 teaspoons of melted butter.
  4. Mix for 3 minutes on medium speed until smooth.
  5. Add remaining flour, one tablespoon at a time, until a soft dough forms.
  6. Turn dough onto a floured surface.
  7. Knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
  8. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top.
  9. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  10. Punch dough down to release air.
  11. Divide dough in half.
  12. Shape each half into a loaf.
  13. Place loaves in greased 5-3/4-in. x 3-1/8-in. x 2-1/4-in. pans.
  14. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  15. Bake at 375 degrees F (191C) for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  16. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
  17. Brush tops with additional melted butter.

Note

Storage: Wrap cooled bread tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, slice and freeze in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.

Substitutions: You can substitute milk with water for a lighter crumb, or use olive oil instead of butter for a different flavor profile. Whole wheat flour can replace up to half of the all-purpose flour for added nutrition, though the loaf will be denser.

Tips: Ensure water and milk are warm (110-115F) but not hot, as excessive heat can kill the yeast. If the dough is too sticky, add flour sparingly; if too dry, add water one teaspoon at a time.

Variations: Add 1 tablespoon of honey to the yeast mixture for a slightly sweeter bread, or incorporate herbs and garlic powder for a savory twist.
