I've made this recipe several times now and the loaf never hangs around for long. The sweetness of the bread is subtle, but is enough to curve a sweet tooth craving. (Especially if you add nutella!! MMmmmm!) If you don't own a bread maker or kitchen aid, no worries. This can be done completely by hand!
INGREDIENTS:
1 C warm water (110-115 degrees)
1/3 C white sugar
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
3/4 tsp salt
2 TBSP veg or olive oil
3 C bread flour
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water and then stir in the yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam. About 10 minutes. Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Place in a well oiled bowl, and turn dough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Knead for a few minutes. Shape dough into a loaf and place into a well oiled 9X5 in loaf pan. Allow to rise for 30 minutes, or until dough has risen 1 inch about the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
