Making homemade bread is so much easier than you think and is so much better than any store-bought bread. Using only a handful of pantry staple ingredients means you can whip up a loaf any time. This homemade white bread recipe delivers a perfectly soft and fluffy loaf, every time.
Ingredients Needed
Instant yeast. Sugar. Warm water. When you put your finger in the water, it should feel like nothing. This is called blood temperature. (98.6°F or 37°C) If the water is too warm, it will kill the yeast. Flour. Any type of flour will work for this bread. All purpose flour gives a very soft loaf while bread flour will need a little extra time while proofing. 00-flour will also work perfectly. Whole wheat flour can be used but will need longer proofing time. Salt. Butter. I used salted butter but unsalted butter can be substituted.
