Sandwichbrot

Zutaten

• 5 cups bread flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 tbsp yeast
• 4 tbsp melted butter
• 2 1/2 cups warm milk (about 105 and 110°F)
• 1 egg (for egg wash)

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a large bowl. Mix and create a well at the center.

2. 2

   Add the melted butter and the milk. Stir with a wooden spoon until a wet mass of dough forms. About 1-2 minutes.

3. 3

   Cover the bowl and leave to rest for five minutes. After five minutes, open the bowl and mix again for a few seconds.

4. 4

   Cover and leave to rest for 45 minutes to one hour.

5. 5

   In the meantime, grease two 9 by 5 loaf pans with butter. Dust them with flour to coat the inside of the pans.

6. 6

   Remove the dough from the bowl, place it on a lightly floured work surface and divide it into two halves.

7. 7

   Form the dough into loaves - it's very soft, so handle it carefully.

8. 8

   Gently place the shaped dough inside the loaf pan.

9. 9

   Cover the pan with a clean damp kitchen towel and leave to rest for 15 to 20 minutes.

10. 10

    Bake in a 375F preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or till a skewer inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean.

11. 11

    Serve with a spread of butter or jam; you can also toast or make a great-tasting sandwich. Enjoy!
