  3. Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
