Ingredients

  • 2 ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoon oil
  • 2 tablespoon molasses

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix water, oil and molasses.
  • In a large bowl (use stand mixer bowl if kneading with one), mix flour, yeast and salt.
  • Combine dry and wet mixtures.
  • Using a stand mixer or your hands, knead until you get a good windowpane. See the recipe's video to check the correct dough texture. Knead for about 14 minutes if doing by hand, and 8 minutes if doing it with your stand mixer.
  • Let dough rise until it doubles, covered with a damp clean towel or plastic wrap. 1 hour and 30 minutes will usually do. Remember to leave it on a warm spot.
  • Open the dough in a square, using your hands or a rolling pin. Then, roll the dough over itself and pinch to close. Place it on a loaf pan, lined with parchment paper. If using plastic wrap to cover, brush oil on top of loaf to prevent it from sticking to the dough.
  • Let it rise for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes at 350F. Bake it until the top is golden brown.
  • Remove from baking pan and let it cool for 1 hour before serving.

Notes

On winter, rising/resting time may be longer, especially if your house is colder.
Always store it away from sunlight and covered (bread keeper or airtight container will do). That prevents the bread from drying out.
