Mama’s Country Bread 🍞😋

First-

Make your yeast mixture

-1/4 cup warm milk

-2 tbsp sugar

-1 tbsp active dry yeast

Stir but DO NOT OVER-STIR

let sit until foamy (bubbly/dark spots)

Add

-2 tsp salt

-1 egg

-3 tbsp softened butter

-5 to 6 cups flour (5 cups 600 grams, 6 cups 720 grams)

-1 1/2 to 2 cups milk

Knead until the dough forms (5-7) minutes

Add more flour while mixing if needed

Dough should become soft & smooth

Place in bowl (rub oil over bread ball)

Let it rise in a warm spot for at least an hour OR until it doubles in size

(I put mine in a bowl, cover with a towel and put in the oven with the light on)

Remove dough from bowl

Divide into 2 pieces

Briefly knead for 30 seconds

Let each loaf rest for 10 minutes

Roll out each loaf with a rolling pin

Roll dough like you’re making cinnamon rolls

Fold each end into the middle

Place into bread pans

Allow to rise until doubled in size

Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown
