One Hour Bread
The easiest white bread recipe! Lately I make it more than any other bread or roll recipe, it's so fast and so delicious! Plus, I love to save the second loaf for French toast the next day. Makes 2 small loaves.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a bowl or in a large liquid measuring cup combine water, milk and butter. Heat in microwave until it reaches 120 - 130 on an instant read thermometer, about ⏱️ 1 - 2 minutes (it's okay if butter doesn't fully melt).
butter, (diced into 1 Tbsp pieces)3 Tbsp
2
Meanwhile add 5 1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and yeast to the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix for about ⏱️ 10 seconds to blend.
cups (780g) bread flour or all-purpose flour, (then more as needed)5 1/2cups water1 1/2salt2 tsp
3
Pour warmed water mixture into flour mixture then pour in lemon juice. Mix on a fairly low speed for ⏱️ 1 minute.
lemon juice2 tsp
4
Scrape dough from paddle and switch to hook attachment, scrape sides of bowl. Set to a fairly low speed and let knead ⏱️ 4 minutes, while adding a little more flour if needed until dough consistency isn't sticky (it can stick to the bottom of bowl but shouldn't stick to the sides).
5
Meanwhile spray two 8 by 4-inch or 8 1/2 by 4 1/2-inch loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray.
6
Divide dough into two equal portions, and shape into logs each 8-inches long. Transfer to prepared loaf pans.
7
Cover loaves with a large container such as a cake carrier or spray a sheet of plastic wrap with non-stick cooking spray and drape over loaf pans. Let rise until doubled in volume, about ⏱️ 25 minutes.
8
Meanwhile preheat oven to 375 degrees.
9
Bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top and hollow when tapped, about ⏱️ 22 - 25 minutes. Invert loaves onto wire racks to cool.
10
Store loaves in an airtight container once they are almost finished cooling.
