The most simple recipe for basic homemade white bread. Made from just yeast, sugar, water, flour and salt this white sandwich bread will become a staple in your house!
Friends, we are in the middle of a very unsettling time. A strange virus has taken over the world, we have been instructed to stay home and suddenly popping out to the shops for a loaf of bread is something that just can't happen. We can't see our friends, there are no social gatherings happening and all non essential businesses are closed.
It is very overwhelming and there is a whole lot that is completely out of our control. What I am choosing to focus on, is what I can control.
Throw Away The Bread Machine Instructions!.... White Bread Recipe
We are so lucky that living rurally, not a whole lot changes for us. We are at home most days anyway and as our kids aren't yet at school we don't have that to contend with either. Our pantry and freezer is stocked, our garden is growing and I am going to be spending this time making even more things from scratch than before.
The thing I want to encourage over this time is coming together as a nation and world and connecting even though we have to physically isolate. We are so incredibly lucky to be isolating in a time where it's never been easier to stay in touch online. Over the weekend I baked a loaf of this bread on my Instagram stories and I was amazed at how many people baked along with me! I will be doing more of this, so if you are on Instagram, be sure to follow along.
This basic white bread recipe is just that. Simple ingredients, no fancy equipment needed and the softest, fluffiest loaf of homemade white bread that you can make.

It makes amazing sandwiches, toast and freezes really well. You can also turn it into bread rolls very easily (see recipe for details)
I always use active dried yeast – this yeast needs to be activated before using it in the dough. The reason I like using this yeast is that it’s a safeguard to bread rising failure. You can actually see that the yeast is activated which is essential for the bread making process!
To activate active dry yeast, add it to a small amount of warm water (somewhere between 40-45°C/105-115°F) and sugar (the amount called for in the recipe) and whisk it around and leave it sitting for about 5-10 minutes. It will start to bubble and foam when it is ready. If this doesn’t happen your yeast may either be too old or the water may have been too hot or too cold. Throw it away and start again. When the yeast is activated using warm water it produces carbon dioxide gas, which causes the bread to rise. You can also use instant yeast (use the same amount as active dry yeast) or Surebake yeast which is a mixture of active dry yeast and bread improvers and is typically used in breadmakers. Both these types of yeast can be added directly to the other ingredients without activating the yeast first. You will need to use twice as much Surebake yeast as you would active dry yeast.

You can't substitute it completely. Wholemeal flour makes a much denser loaf of bread which I find not very enjoyable. If you really want to sub some wholemeal flour in, start with 1 cup wholemeal, 3 cups plain flour and see how that goes. Over the next couple of weeks I will be working on a wholegrain sandwich bread recipe so watch this space!
I put my dough to rise in our linen cupboard. The hot water cylinder is in there which makes a nice warm environment. If you don't have a hot water cupboard you can use the following places:
Your yeast may be old – see above for how to activate the yeast. If your yeast doesn’t activate, it’s no good. Throw it out and start again.

It may simply be too cold where you are trying to rise your bread! If it’s cooler where you live, try putting the bread in the hot water cupboard or preheat the oven to 50°C and then turn off before placing the bread in there to rise.
When the bread is golden brown and you tap the bottom of the loaf (remove from the tin first) and it sounds hollow, it’s done.
If you have an instant read thermometer you want the internal temperature of the bread to be 88°C/190°F –this postexplains it and tested a few different types of breads – it’s a really interesting read if you are keen to learn more about bread baking!

Gluten-free white breadmaker loaf recipe – a super easy recipe that produces wonder fresh gluten-free bread with minimal effort. That’s what a breadmaker is for right?

Cuisinart Gluten Free Bread Maker: Review And Recipe
I mention this especially as I’ll be highlighting which breadmaker I used to make this recipe (see the FAQ section for that). Other breadmakers are available, of course ?
But it’s especially important to mention as, if you want to get the exact same result as you see here, using the exact breadmaker is an easy way to do so.
Of course, I haven’t tested this in any breadmakers other than my own so please let me know your make and model and how it turned out. It will be very helpful for others who may have the same machine as you!
Honey White Bread
As I said… like bread! It has a lovely crusty finish which is often impossible to find in gluten-free bread. It’s miraculously flexible, not heavy or dense and has a lovely light crumb.
In terms of actual taste, as gluten-free bread flour is neutral-flavoured, there’s no strange aftertaste like some specific gluten-free flours can provide. It just tastes like a wonderful white loaf!
All in all, it’s perfect for sandwiches, toast with a bit of butter (especially in thick, chunky slices) and whatever else your heart desires.

So I thought I’d kick things off with a little frequently asked questions section – if you just want the recipe, then keep scrolling.
But I’ve thrown in some tips here that will be really helpful if this is your first time making this, or you want to adapt it. So here they are!
Bear in mind that minimising cross-contamination is hugely important if you’re Coeliac or making this for someone who is. Here’s some tips from Coeliac UK on minimising the risk of cross contamination.

Also, make sure that all ingredients used don’t have any gluten-containing ingredients. Then make that that they also don’t have a ‘may contain’ warning for gluten, wheat, rye, barley, oats (which aren’t gf), spelt and khorasan wheat (aka Kamut).
I haven’t tested this using egg replacers for the eggs, but you’re welcome to give it a go. I’d probably go for 6 tbsp of aquafaba (prewhisked until frothy) if I gave it a go.
Please let me know in the comments if you test aquafaba in place of the eggs before I do! Of course, use dairy-free milk too.
Breville Basic White Bread 🍞🍞 Recipe By Pinkblanket's Kitchen
Before they kindly gifted me with the fancier, newer model (only a couple of months ago), I used the Panasonic 2522 breadmaker.
I can vouch for both being perfect for this recipe because I’ve tested in both – plus, they both have a gluten-free setting, which I use for this recipe.
The correct (unhelpful) answer is that I have no idea! I’ve only ever owned and used the two breadmakers listed above so I can only speak for those.

The fact that they both have a gluten-free bread setting also means I can’t really speak for the outcome of this recipe in machines that don’t have such a setting.
I’m told by you lovely, helpful people that most breadmakers have
