I've made a lot of bread recipes and this one has become my absolute favorite! I make a batch every couple of weeks!

My Favorite White Bread Recipe

instant yeast (two 0.25-ounce packets)

sugar

salt

unsalted butter, cubed,

all-purpose flour

unsalted butter (melted, for brushing)

In the bowl of a mixer, stir to dissolve the yeast in ¾ cup of the warm water, and let sit for 5 minutes. Add the remaining 2⅔ cups water, sugar, salt, room temperature butter, and 5 cups of the flour and stir to combine.

Using a dough hook, mix on low speed and gradually add the remaining flour until the dough is soft and tacky, but not sticky (you may not need to use all of the flour). Continue to knead until a soft ball of dough forms and clears the sides of the bowl, about 7 to 10 minutes.

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and turn it over so it is completely coated. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a draft-free place to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Gently press it all over to remove any air pockets. Divide the dough in two and, working with one piece at a time, gently pat it into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Roll up the rectangle, starting on the short end, into a very tight cylinder. Pinch to seal the seams and the ends, tuck the ends of the roll until the bread, and place into greased 9-inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves loosely and place in a draft-free area until doubled in size, 30 to 45 minutes.

Position an oven rack on the lowest setting and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Brush the loaves with some of the melted butter. Bake the loaves for 30 to 35 minutes, rotating halfway through, until golden brown (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 195 degrees F).

Remove from the oven and immediately brush with more of the melted butter. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and cool completely before slicing. The bread can be stored in an airtight bread bag or wrapped tightly in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 4 days. It can also be frozen for up to 1 month.

Look no further for the BEST and simplest homemade Bread recipe made with just six simple pantry ingredients! It&#039;s the perfect white bread for sandwiches and it freezes well too!

Homemade Bread

water (105-115 degrees)

Tablespoons active dry yeast*

honey or sugar

Tablespoons oil (canola

all-purpose or bread flour*

Prepare the dough: In a large bowl or stand mixer add the yeast, water and a pinch of the sugar or honey. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes until foaming and bubbly. (This is called “proofing” the yeast, to make sure it is active. If it doesn’t foam, the yeast is no good, and you need to start over with fresh yeast).

Add remaining sugar or honey, salt, oil, and 3 cups of flour. Mix to combine.

Add another cup of flour and mix to combine. With the mixer running add more flour, ½ cup at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. The dough should be smooth and elastic, and slightly stick to a clean finger, but not be overly sticky. Add a little more flour, if needed.

Knead the dough: Mix the dough for 4-5 minutes on medium speed (or knead with your hands on a lightly floured surface, for 5-8 minutes).

First Rise: Grease a large bowl with oil or cooking spray and place the dough inside, turning to coat. Cover with a dish towel or plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place* until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.

Spray two 9x5&#039;&#039; bread pans generously with cooking spray on all sides. (I also like to line the bottom of the pans with a small piece of parchment or wax paper, but this is optional.)

Punch the dough down well to remove air bubbles. Divide into two equal portions. Shape each ball into long logs and place into greased loaf pans.

Second rise: Spray two pieces of plastic wrap with cooking spray and lay them gently over the pans. Allow dough to rise again for about 45 minutes to one hour, or until risen about 1 inch above the loaf pans. Gently removing covering.

Bake: Preheat oven to 350 F. Bake bread for about 30-33 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Give the top of a loaf a gentle tap; it should sound hollow.

Invert the loaves onto a wire cooling rack. Brush the tops with butter and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Once cool, store in an airtight container or bag for 2-3 days at room temperature, or up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

Vegan Cinnamon Rolls

Tbsp yeast

Tbsp sugar

butter

flour

brown sugar

cinnamon

vegan butter (melted)

Tbsp flour

plant based milk ((warmed))

Tbsp pearl sugar

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the 1/4 c warm water. Allow to rest 10 minutes.

Add all the other ingredients for the dough and mix well. Cover and let rest until dough has doubled in size, about 15-30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Punch down dough and knead for about 5 minutes on floured surface. Roll into a large rectangle as thick as a pencil.

Mix the filling ingredients in a bowl and spread it over the whole surface of the dough. Using a sharp knife, cut dough into strips across the short side of the rectangle. Roll each strip loosely to make spirals, slightly tucking and pressing the end into the bottom.  Place the spirals in a greased 9&quot;x13&quot; pan. For tighter cinnamon rolls, use a 9&quot;x9&quot; pan.

Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 25-35 minutes. Cook longer for chewier, cook less for softer.

Combine the glaze ingredients in a bowl and brush over the baked cinnamon rolls. Sprinkle on the pearl sugar. Bake for another 5-10 minutes so the sugar will stick to the rolls.

A simple vegan recipe for delicious homemade bread. Makes 2 large loaves or 3 smaller loaves.

Basic Bread

Tbsp melted vegan butter

tsp salt

Tbsp plain unsweetened soy milk (other plant based milk ok)

Combine the yeast mixture ingredients and mix thoroughly. Allow to rest about 10 minutes.

Add all the other ingredients for the dough and mix until a moist dough is formed. Cover and let rest until dough has doubled in size, about 15-45 minutes.

Punch down dough and knead for about 5 minutes on floured surface. Divide into two equal sized pieces. Roll each piece into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Roll starting from the short side and tuck the edges under. You can use water to help them stick. Score the bread diagonally using a sharp razor.

Allow the shaped loafs to proof in a warm, moist place until nearly doubled (about 15-45 minutes). A cupboard with a glass of hot water is a good proofing spot.

Heat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Optionally, you can add glaze and toppings to the crust. For the glaze, mix 1 Tablespoon of melted vegan butter with 2 Tablespoons of plant based milk and coat it gently onto the surface of the bread using a pastry brush. Olive oil can be used as an alternative glaze. For toppings, simply sprinkle them on as desired.

Bake on the middle rack until the crush is golden brown (the top may be darker) and sounds hollow when tapped with fingers, about 15-20 minutes. Turn during baking if one side seems to be browning faster.

Allow to cool completely before cutting. Store cut bread wrapped in a clean kitchen towel or in a plastic bag. Consume within 5 days after baking.

Tablespoons White Granulated Sugar (– 25 grams)

(– 7.5

Teaspoons Bread Machine Yeast (– 7.5 milliliters)

Tablespoons Unsalted Butter ((softened) – 57 grams)

Cups Bread Flour ((not all purpose flour) – 360 grams)

Tablespoons White Granulated Sugar (– 19 grams)

(– 5

Teaspoon Bread Machine Yeast (– 5 milliliters)

For a 2 lb loaf, please use the 2 lb ingredient list and set the bread machine settings to 2 pound loaf, light color and “basic” bread options. For a 1.5 lb loaf, please use the 1.5 lb ingredient list and set the bread machine settings to 1.5 pound loaf, light color and “basic” bread options.

Soften the butter in your microwave.

Your bread machine should be unplugged. Remove the bread pan from the bread machine (so when you add the ingredients, they can not accidentally spill into the machine).

Pour the milk into the bread pan and then add the other ingredients. Place the bread machine yeast in last and the yeast should not touch the liquid (until the bread machine is turned on and the ingredients start to be mixed together by the bread machine). Put bread pan with ingredients back into unplugged bread machine.

Plug in bread machine. Enter the correct settings (for either 1.5 lb or 2 lb loaf version) and press the &quot;start&quot; button.

When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, unplug the bread machine. Remove the bread and place it on a cooling rack. Use oven mitts when removing the bread machine container (bread loaf pan) as it will be very hot!

After removing the bread, don’t forget to remove the mixing paddle if it is stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts as the mixing paddle will be very hot coming out of the bread machine. Or wait until the bread is completely cooled and then remove the mixing paddle.

In our Sunbeam bread machine, the baking takes about 3 hours for a 2 pound bread (and 2:53 hours for a 1.5 lb bread loaf) at the light color &amp; basic bread settings. However, some machines can differ and you don’t want to be away from home when the bread machine “finished” alarm goes off! Your bread machine should show you the length of the baking time after you have entered the settings into the machine. This will allow you to know when to be in the kitchen in order to remove the bread.

Before using your bread machine, you should read the bread machine manufacturer’s  instructions in order to use the bread machine effectively and safely.
