There’s nothing quite like the aroma of freshly baked bread wafting through your kitchen, and with our simple Homemade Butter Bread recipe, you can experience that joy in the comfort of your own home. Let’s dive into the delightful process of creating this soft, buttery goodness!
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 150 ml of milk
- 80 grams of sugar
- 1 teaspoon bread yeast
- 300 grams of flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons of butter for the dough
- Butter for greasing the layers
- Egg for brushing
Preparation:
Step 1: Mixing the Magic
In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, milk, salt, and yeast with a beaten egg. Give it a good mix until everything is well incorporated. Now, add all the flour to the mix, stirring it in to form a doughy delight. Cover your bowl with a towel and let the magic happen – allow it to rest for a patient 20 minutes.
Once your dough has taken a breather, gently place it onto a floured surface. It’s kneading time! Gradually introduce softened butter while kneading for at least 10 minutes. This step is crucial for achieving that perfect, fluffy texture. Cover your doughy masterpiece and let it chill for another 20 minutes.
Step 2: Rolling and Shaping
Roll out your dough into a lovely rectangle, aiming for about 2 mm thickness. Now, generously spread butter over the surface – because, let’s be honest, butter makes everything better! Follow the steps in the accompanying video to shape your dough into a delightful form. Roll it up and cut into neat 2 cm pieces. Divide these treasures in half and place them lovingly into greased molds. Let the anticipation build as you allow them to rise for a glorious hour.
