Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cup (300ml) lukewarm water
- 0.5 oz. (15g) sugar
- 0.7 oz. (21g) fresh yeast
- 4 cups (510g) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tbsp. oil
- 1 tsp. molasses
Instructions
- Grease a large loaf tin (about 11x5x3inch/28x13x8cm) and dust with flour – set aside.
- Add the lukewarm water (100°F/38°C), sugar and the crumbled fresh yeast to large bowl and mix until the yeast has dissolved completely. Cover and let sit for about 5 minutes.
- Add the flour, salt, oil and molasses to the bowl and knead with the machine for about 5 minutes until you get a nice smooth dough. Take out of the bowl and knead a minute or so with your hands on a floured surface, form a long roll and place in the tin. Press to the bottom, so you get one even layer of dough. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for about 2 hours.
- Place the tin in the cold oven and set the temperature to 390°F (200°C). Bake for about 30 minutes, then take out of the tin and bake another 10-15 minutes on a baking sheet, so ghe bread can get a nice color. Take out of the oven and let cool down completely on a wire rack.
Notes
- Enjoy baking!
