02 Step

Recipe View In a large resealable freezer bag, combine 1 cup of flour, warm water, sugar, and yeast. Squeeze out most of the air and seal the bag. Squish the mixture with your hands until well blended. Let rest at room temperature until bubbles appear, about 10 minutes to activate the yeast. (15 minutes)

Recipe View In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, dry milk, olive oil, and salt until combined. Pour this mixture into the resealable bag with the yeast mixture. Squeeze out most of the air, seal, and squish until well blended. Add the remaining 1 cup of flour to the bag; continue mixing in the same manner until well blended and a dough forms. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the dough from the bag onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for 5 to 8 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic. Form the dough into a loaf shape and place it into the prepared loaf pan. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place until your finger leaves a slight impression when you gently poke the top of the loaf, about 30 minutes. (40 minutes)

07 Step

Recipe View Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For a softer crust, brush the top of the loaf with melted butter or olive oil before baking.
If your dough seems too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time during kneading until it reaches the right consistency.
Ensure your water is warm, but not hot, as hot water can kill the yeast.
You can substitute honey or maple syrup for sugar for a slightly different flavor profile.
Store the cooled bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
