Maybe it’s the wintry weather, but lately I’ve been craving easy bread-baking projects, even though any recipe involving yeast tends to scare me. The exception to this rule is basically any recipe from Ali Stafford of Alexandra Cooks, whose simple, clear instructions demystify the from-scratch process in a deeply motivating way — check out herbowl bread if you don’t believe me.
Below is a version of that recipe that you can make in a regular old loaf pan. The bread is remarkable in many ways, but my favorite thing is that you can decide mid-afternoon that you want to bake bread and sit down to a warm, fresh loaf by dinnertime. “People think you need to spend days making bread to get a good crumb structure and flavor and all that, ” says Ali. “But you can make very good loaf start to finish in three to four hours.” Sold.
“My mother’s peasant bread continues to be my favorite, easiest bread to make. This is a simple variation, adapted to yield one standard-sized loaf pan, a great shape for both sandwiches and toast. (You can find notes below the recipe that address using whole wheat flour, doubling the recipe, and storing the bread.) For best results, measure with a scale. It will leave you with a delicious loaf of bread, golden-crusted, soft-crumbed, perfect for smearing with good, salted butter.”
Simple White Tin Loaf
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add the lukewarm water. Using a spatula, stir to combine until you have a sticky dough ball. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and place in a warm spot to rise until the dough doubles, about 2 hours (or longer depending on the temperature of your kitchen).
Heat the oven to 375F. Grease a 9×5-inch or 8.5×4.5-inch loaf pan with the softened butter. Deflate the dough using two forks or a flexible dough scraper. Pour the 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the dough and turn the dough ball to coat it in the oil. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Let rise until the dough crowns the rim of the pan, about 45 minutes to an hour.
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 45 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a cooling rack and let cool for 30 minutes before slicing.

If using active-dry yeast, sprinkle it over the lukewarm water and add the sugar. Let stand for 15-20 minutes or until the yeast gets foamy. Then proceed with the recipe.
You can substitute some whole wheat flour for the bread flour, if you wish. I recommend starting small: 1 cup (128 g) whole wheat flour and 2 cups (256 g) bread flour. Keep in mind the more whole wheat flour you add, the heavier/denser the bread will be.
Depending on where you live, you may need to adjust the amount of water you are using. This is a very high hydration dough, and if you live in a humid environment or if you are using a different type of flour (as opposed to commercial, American flour such as King Arthur Flour), you may need to reduce the amount of water — the dough should be wet and sticky, but it should still form a ball. In other words, it should not be soupy.

Bread freezes well. Let cool completely; then transfer to an airtight bag or vessel for as long as 3 months. To store the bread, let it cool completely; then transfer to an airtight bag or vessel and leave it at room temperature.

Dough thrives in a warm, draft-free environment. If your oven has a “proof” function, then use it. The “proof” function preheats the oven to 100 F degrees, causing a warm, but not hot environment for your dough to rise nicely.
If your oven doesn’t have this “proof” function, I would still use the oven. What I usually do is preheat the oven to 200F degrees, or whatever the lowest setting is for it. Once it reaches that temperature, turn off the oven, then place the dough in there to rise. This will speed up the proofing process tremendously.
This bread recipe is perfect for doubling and making two loaves. Simply slide the serving slider to change the number of servings from 10 to 20. This will automatically change the ingredient amounts, allowing you to make enough dough for 2 white bread loaves.
Simple. Delicious. Bread (jo Semola, German)
Of course! Although it will take you longer, you can still knead the dough by hand. The dough needs to be soft, smooth and elastic, so you’ll have to knead it for about 15 to 25 minutes. Kneading bread dough by hand might also require a bit more flour, so play with it and see what works for you.
Probably one of the most common questions I get on this blog is why didn’t my dough rise? Since I’m not with you in the kitchen when you’re baking, it’s really impossible for me to pinpoint where you went wrong or what happened with your dough. There are many reasons why dough doesn’t rise, so here’s my list for possible reasons.
White bread, or any bread for that matter will last about 4 days at room temperature. Simply make sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or use a bread bag.

Bread is great for freezing. It’s important to freeze bread while it’s still fresh and not after it has gone stale. Let the bread cool completely before storing it in freezer bags. Bread will last in the freezer for 3 to 6 months.

Bubble Bread From The Bubble Room Copycat Recipe
If you love the idea of baking homemade bread but are put off by all the hands on time it takes then you've come to the right place.
My Easy Wholemeal Bread recipe takes literally minutes to prepare, there is no kneading involved at all and proving and baking happens as you get on with other stuff. Make sure you set a timer though, as it's so easy to lose track of time.
I've always loved crusty breads the most and this one has got a lovely golden crust with a bit of crunch. If you prefer softer crust you can simply cover your freshly baked bread gently with a clean tea towel as it cools which will makes it softer.
No Knead Bread
No you don't. I've baked this bread numerous times using just plain white and plain wholemeal (whole wheat) flours and the results are the same as when I've used strong (bread flours).
You can be pretty brave and mix and match your flours here but I would advise you to keep to 50/50 ratio of white to wholemeal/whole wheat flour for the best results and nice, light crumb.
As with any homemade bread and because of the lack of preservatives it is the best on the day you bake it.
