Description

This homemade bread is soft, delicious, and perfect for sandwiches or toast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (Make sure it’s kosher if needed.)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the warm water and sugar, then sprinkle the yeast over it; let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, sweetened condensed milk, and softened butter. Mix until combined.
  3. Transfer the dough onto a clean, floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  5. Once risen, punch down the dough to release air, then shape it into a loaf or divide into smaller rolls.
  6. Place the shaped dough into a greased loaf pan or on a baking sheet and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden and sounds hollow when tapped.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice, serve, and enjoy.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly.
  • Kneading the dough thoroughly helps develop gluten, making the bread softer.
