Grandma’s Country White Bread recipe
Sweet Pea's Kitchen

Do you love the smell of fresh-baked bread? COUNTRY WHITE BREAD is easy to make with just a few simple ingredients. This recipe makes two loaves, so you can share with a friend or freeze one for later.

Ingredients

1 Packet dry active yeast
1 cup water (warm)
1 egg (large)
1 tsp Salt
¼ C Granulated sugar
3 Tbsp Oil
3-4 C All-purpose flour

Method

1
Add the yeast and water to a large mixing bowl and allow to sit to bloom for 10 minutes.
2
Place the egg, salt, 2 cups of the flour, sugar, and oil into the mixing bowl with the yeast mixture. Blend on high until well combined.
3
Add in another cup of flour and blend until the dough is smooth.
4
If needed, add more flour, a ¼ cup at a time until the dough easily slips away from the mixing handle.
5
Place the dough in a well-greased large bowl, and turn over a few times to coat it well so it does not stick.
6
Cover lightly with a clean cloth and place in a warm area to rise for an hour. The dough should rise to at least double its original size.
7
Punch the dough down, knead a few times, and place into a well-greased loaf pan.
8
Cover and place into a warm area to rise once again for another hour.
9
Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes until browned and cooked through.
