Simple bread dough

This instructable will teach you a simple way to make a bread dough.

The main thing to remember, is that the quality of the bread is proportional to the effort you put in, so we need to simplify it some other way.

I've gotten a recipe that makes it easy to know how much flour to use, while still getting a great bread out of it.

Step 1 Ingredients

You'll need:
flour (about a pound)
instant dry yeast (about a tablespoon)
1 cup milk
2 Oz. butter
1 egg

I took this loaf out of the oven about an hour ago and just had the first slice. This is an outstanding loaf. Moist with a great crust. This recipe may replace my current "everyday" white loaf which uses water with powered mild and less butter. Only change I made was to add a tsp of salt. Salt is an essential ingredient in bread and is needed to help the yeast develop the proper texture during fermentation and helps develop a proper crust during baking. It also enhances the taste. Never make bread without at least a tbs of salt per loaf. I used two tablespoons of honey for the sweetener. May drop that down to one next time as the little yeasties had a field day and the oven spring made it rise up almost five inches above the top of my loaf pan. I'll have to play around and get that down to a normal hight - maybe 3/4 cup milk and less flour will help. Once again, OUTSTANDING recipe! Thank you.
