How to Make Homemade Bread

If you’ve never made bread before, know that it is not difficult at all. You do have to knead it and let it rise a bit, but I think you will really love how tasty this comes out. 

The full recipe is below, but here are a few tips per the photos above.

1. Make sure your water is about 110° before adding to the yeast.
2. I use instant yeast for this recipe, it always works well.
3. Once you start adding the flour, the dough will be sticky.
4. The dough will get smoother as you knead it.
5. Be sure to cover the dough before covering.
6. The dough can just go in the center of each vessel, don't worry about meeting the edges of the pan.

• I love to make this recipe in mini-loaves (like this one) and you can freeze the dough right before baking. Freeze in an airtight, freezer-safe container. when ready to bake, allow the dough to thaw overnight in the refrigerator, or for 2-3 hours at room temperature.
• Use instant yeast for this recipe, traditional active dry yeast will involve an extra step.
• As much as you might want to skip the kneading or rising process, don't, both are necessary for high-quality homemade bread.
