How to Make Amish Bread Ii
- In a large bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon of active dry yeast in 3/4 cup (175ml) warm water (105-115°F) with 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar. Let stand until foamy (about 5-10 minutes).
- Add the following ingredients to the yeast mixture: 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened; 2 large eggs; 1 teaspoon salt; 1/4 cup (30g) milk powder; 4 cups (500g) all-purpose flour (plus more for dusting).
- Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Lightly grease a large bowl with oil or butter.
- Place the dough in the prepared bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1-1.5 hours).
- Gently punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf to fit a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Place the shaped dough into the prepared pan and let rise again, until almost doubled (about 45-60 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Let the bread cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
