Homemade Bread for Beginners - Easy White Bread - One Rise - Single Rising Bread Dough Recipe - Soft & Fluffy Milk Bread





















This is my own and the quick way when you only need freshly baked bread at home. It require a short fermentation time, only a single rising, which means less than an hour it's ready to bake. so unbelievably good, soft and chewy, and easy to make bread in the shorter time. just like the loaves you can get at the local bakery shop. I used bread maker at this time, it helps for kneading and fermentation, it is like a robots could help you save more energy and spend less time, so bread maker really a life saver.

Ingredients
(A)
• 240g cold milk
• 40g sugar, optional
• 350g bread flour
• 2 tsp, 6g-8g dried yeast
• a pinch of sea salt

(B)
• 2 tsp vegetable oil

(C)
• 1/2 egg, whisked
• 1 tbsp milk 

If you use 1 egg, whisked + 2 tbsp milk like the video, any leftover egg wash can be store in the upper fridge for 2 days. 

(Makes 2 - 1lb Loaf Tin)

Method: 
1) Add (A) ingredients to the bread machine pan and choose the dough setting on your machine and press start. allow the bread machine to knead, and add (B) ingredients to mix, and rest your dough. for 15 minutes, remove the dough and form into loaf, loaves.

2) After shaped the dough, rise in the warm oven for about 30 minutesbrush egg wash over the bread top, see (C) ingredients. place the baking loaf tins in the oven lower rack, no preheated oven 150°C, bake for 35 minutes. after 25 minutes, you can cover with aluminium foil to prevert the burn. After baking, brush melted butter over the crust immediately and cool completely on a wire rack.  


Helpful Tips:
1) You still can use the same recipe and knead by hand or stand mixer instead.
2) These are best eaten within a day. Leftover breads can store in an airtight bag. It can also be frozen for up to 1 month, defrost and reheated in a toaster or hot oven. 
3) Yeast is best stored in the refrigerator, as the fungud in it will be killed at high temperatures. Before using yeast check the production date and storage life of your yeast. Refrigerate it as soon as possible after each use. The main cause of bread falling to rise is bad yeast.
4) The best way to store bread for freshness is in the freezer for about 1 month. after defrost the bread, reheating and serve, tastes like fresh-baked. 
5) It's recommended to use an oven thermometer.
6) If it's a winter day, the common problem is that dough won't rise. Using a warm oven by turn your oven on and off for a minute or with boiled water on the underneath to help your dough rise perfectly. 
7) Butter is better, because it's safe, fresh and real food. only little bit unhealthy saturated fats. Margarine is deadly, because of trans fats. You should probably just use 2 tsp or 1 tbsp rapeseed oil or mild olive oil instead to raise your good cholesterol and lower bad cholesterol, replace carbohydrates with fat.
