I've been experimenting with bread recipes and finally found the perfect loaf! I have no patience for sourdough, so this is what Dave calls "white bread done right". This is my new "go-to" recipe.
The fun trick here is that the bread goes into a COLD oven and is immediately set for 350 degrees. In 30 minutes, you have a lovely loaf of beautiful bread!
Bread Machine Bread
Ingredients:
1 cup hot water (110-120 degrees) from the tap is fine.
1 egg
4 tablespoon cold butter (not softened)
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups flour (I use bread flour)
1 tablespoon quick-rise yeast
Directions:
Place hot water, egg, butter sugar and salt in bread machine.
Add 3 cups flour, and make a small well in the flour and add yeast.
Set the bread machine to "dough" - 90 minutes - and start.
When dough is finished, pour directly into a greased bread pan.
Place the bread in a COLD oven and set for 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Let the bread cool slightly before removing from the pan and brush the top with melted butter.
Let me know how yours turns out!!
