Recipe for Making Bread at Home


 


List of items needed to make a recipe.
3 1/2 to 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 packet of active dry yeast, 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 1/4 cups of warm water (110°F or 45°C), 2 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter. You can also add 1 tablespoon of honey or olive oil for extra flavor and moisture.


Instructions
Making the dough
Start the Yeast:
Mix the lukewarm water, sugar, and yeast in a small bowl. Stir softly and leave it for around 5 minutes, or until it gets bubbly. If the mixture doesn't bubble, the yeast might be expired or the water too hot or cold. Begin again with new yeast and water.

 
Combine the dry ingredients.
