Loaf Bread Recipe Soft

This dough is the hands down favorite sourdough bread recipe in my house. It’s so soft, flavorful, widely adaptable, and just plain delicious. I use it for practically everything, with a few minor adjustments as needed.

This recipe can be made with bread flour, all-purpose flour, or a combination of whole wheat and either bread flour or all-purpose flour. For a whole wheat version of this loaf, I recommend using half whole wheat flour and half bread flour or all-purpose flour. I tend to find that whole wheat flour requires a bit more proofing time because it is rather heavy compared to many other flours.

Most of the time I like to make this recipe with a small amount of added instant yeast to cut down on proofing time. The added yeast is completely optional if your sourdough starter is ripe. I like to use a little bit of yeast to shorten the process when my family is always too excited to wait 18 hours for a slow starter-only rise. If you do not use the added yeast, you’ll have a much slower rise and a more pronounced sourdough flavor, which is worth the wait for sure. My daughters prefer the less sour method however, so that’s what I typically make.

Incredibly Soft Vegan White Sandwich Bread (no Eggs, No Butter, No Dairy)

It’s worth noting that because it is an enriched dough (meaning it contains milk, butter, and some sugar), it can take longer rise due to the inclusion of the fats and sugars as opposed to the proofing time of a lean dough (meaning it contains only flour, water, yeast, and salt).

Super soft and full of flavor, this loaf bread is perfect for sandwiches or spread with butter. The milk and butter in the dough help give it the soft, rich texture. 

Transfer to a large oiled bowl. Cover with oiled plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled, about 2 hours if using the optional added yeast. (

Turn proofed dough out onto a clean counter top and stretch it several times to develop the gluten. Roll it tightly into a loaf, pinching the seams together. Transfer to an oiled loaf pan and cover with oiled plastic wrap to rise again, about 1 hour or until dough is about 1-inch above the rim of the pan (

Remove from oven and immediately brush top with melted butter. (Do not skip this step as it is key to a soft crust.)

We love using this bread recipe for Air Fryer Fried Chicken Sandwiches, as a dipper for Roasted Tomato Soup, or as an appetizer with our easy smoked salmon dip. Don’t forget it makes a great side dish too, especially when served alongside Chicken Mushroom Pasta.

Homemade Bread (white Bread Recipe)

This simple white bread recipe does not disappoint when it comes to quality and flavor. No matter what you use it for, whether its prepping school lunches, making yourself a snack, or serving it as your dinner side, you’ll be in sliced bread heaven.

No need to buy the low-grade store-bought loaves, or spend all your money on expensive bakery bread, you can make this recipe at home any time you want!

Making your own bread is actually very simple, and not nearly as complex as you would think. In just over 2 hours you can have a fresh out of the oven loaf of white bread, and that’s with 1 hour and 30 minutes of just waiting for it to rise.

Soft Milk Bread Loaf

The time it takes to prepare is so worth the peace of mind you have knowing exactly what’s in the bread you are eating. When it’s made at home you don’t run the risk of any added preservatives, it’s like having bakery-fresh bread all the time.

It’s incredibly light and fluffy, and dare I say even better than any bread I’ve bought from the store. It’s the perfect texture you want for all of your bread needs.

Soft

Use it to make your breakfast toast and nut butter, your turkey and cheese lunch sandwich, or mid-day snack avocado toast. Those are just a few of my favorite uses, but the options are really endless.

Perfect & Easy Crusty, Soft French Bread

A bread box, while a little old school, is still very effective. If you have one or have the room for one, I suggest storing your loaf in there. It will give it the best odds of staying fresh as long as possible.

If you want to just leave the white bread out on the counter, instead of in a bread box, you’ll need to cover the loaf with either plastic wrap or foil to prevent it from drying out.

To get more bang for my buck, I always make two loaves or even double the recipe to make two extra-large loaves, and immediately slice and freeze one to save for later. That way once I run out of the first loaf I already have another on hand and ready to eat

If you want a slice right out of the freezer, just pop it in the microwave for 20 seconds or toaster and you’ll be good to go. Or if you have the time, just let it thaw on the counter for a few hours.

For this recipe, you’ll want to pull out the big stand mixer you probably never use. Using a powerful stand mixer helps kneed the dough, allowing you to get that perfect end result.
