Description

The stuff at the grocery is an injustice to the name Bread. Real bread is soft, warm, chewy, moist, and amazing. This recipe is just that.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Warm Water
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Plus 1 Teaspoon Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Yeast
  • 2-¾ cups Bread Flour

Preparation

Combine water, salt, sugar, oil, and yeast. Add 1-1/4 cup flour. Stir together. It will still be on the soupy side. Allow to sit in a warm place, covered with a towel. Allow this to rise until around double in size, anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes.

Using the remaining 1/4 cup to flour a work surface, slowly knead in the remaining 1-1/4 cup flour. It shouldn’t take long, just enough for the flour to be thoroughly incorporated. Form the dough into a nice ball and place in a greased bowl. Cover and allow to rise like before, doubling in size.

Place in a greased bread pan. Allow the bread to rise one last time until it peaks above the pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35 – 45 minutes. If you prefer a less brown crust, tent some foil over it for the last few minutes of baking.

There is kneading required, but only a small amount. Just enough to incorporate the second amount of flour.
I’ll clarify that in the recipe.

No kneading required for this?

I have made this recipe twice now and it is wonderful! I have used several other recipes in the past and this has a much better taste. I am at a high altitude and add a little gluten.
