Ali’s Perfect Sandwich Bread
Delicious white bread that cuts beautifully and holds its structure. Perfect for eating by the slice or making sandwiches.
Equipment
- Kitchenaid or other mixer, recommended but not necessary
Ingredients
- 2 cups warm water
- 1/3 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoon yeast
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cups coconut oil
- 6 cups flour all-purpose
Instructions
- Add all ingredients into mixer and mix with the dough hook for 8-10 minutes until smooth. (If you don't have a mixer, place all ingredients into a mixing bowl, mix by hand and then turn out to floured surface and knead until dough is smooth.)
- Cover and let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until dough has risen.
- Punch down dough, split in two, and shape into two loaves.
- Place into two well-greased loaf pans and let rise for about an hour, or until the loaf has risen above the rim.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for about a hour.
- Brush tops with butter and let bread completely cool before slicing it. This is key. If you dig into these bad boys before they are cooled, the texture will be completely different. Once cooled, the bread will be strong, with a nice crumb and will hold its structure.
