Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon dry active yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

  • Mix water with yeast, 1 cup flour, and sugar. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
  • Add salt to the rest of the flour, and then add it to the above mixture.
  • Knead and add oil throughout the kneading.
  • Keep on kneading until you get a soft dough and that might take up to 10 minutes.
  • Cover the dough with wet cloth and let it rise for one and half hour to two hours.
  • Punch the dough and knead for one minute. Form a 9-inch log and place in a Greased 9x6 loaf pan. Cover the dough and allow it to rise again for 40 minutes.
  • When the dough has risen, you can brush it with egg wash or milk, and then place it in a preheated oven of 350F/180C. Bake the bread for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • When the plain bread is baked, take it out of the oven and cover with damp a cloth or kitchen towel to keep it moist.
