Fail-Proof Bread Recipe – Soft, Tasty, and Easy!

Instructions:

1. Activate the Yeast:
   • Dissolve sugar in the warm water in a mixing bowl.
   • Sprinkle yeast on top and let it proof for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Combine Wet Ingredients:
   • Stir the vegetable oil into the proofed yeast mixture.
3. Prepare the Dough:
   • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
   • Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.
4. Knead:
   • Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 3-5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise:
   • Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to coat both sides.
   • Cover with a towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. Shape the Loaves:
   • Punch down the dough to release air. Divide it in half and shape into loaves.
   • Place each loaf into a greased bread pan.
7. Second Rise:
   • Cover again and let rise for 30-40 minutes, until the dough fills the pans nicely.
8. Bake:
   • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the loaves for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
9. Finish:
   • Remove the loaves from the pans and brush the tops with butter while still warm for a soft, shiny crust.
