This is the best homemade bread recipe! The bread is soft and airy with a buttery crust. With only 5 ingredients, it will turn out every time you make it.
Let the dough raise (covered, room temperature) in the same bowl you mixed it in for 1 hour or until doubled.
06Remove from bowl gently and form into 2 loaves. (Just fold it and mold with your hands until it's the size and shape you want, then pinch together the dough wherever it joins.)
07Place in greased bread loaf pans and raise (covered, room temperature) 1 hour or until doubled.
08Preheat oven to 375ºF.
09Bake at 375 degrees F for 25 minutes, remove from oven and brush each loaf with a tablespoon of butter.
10Return to oven and bake 5-10 more minutes, or until golden brown. The internal temperature of the bread should read right around 200 degrees F.
