AuthorSharmilee J

Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup dry milk powder
  • 3 tablespoon oil
  • 1 and 1/2 cups warm water may vary
  • 3 tablespoon sugar i used demerara sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoon dry yeast
  • 1.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Take yeast in a bowl, add 3 tablespoon sugar then oil.

  • Add 1/2 cup luke warm water and set aside undisturbed for few mins.It will bubble up which shows that the yeast is active. Set aside.

  • Now add 3 cups of wheat flour in a mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup milk powder.

  • Then add salt. Whisk it well for even mixing. Now add the yeast mixture. Then add remaining water little by little.

  • Knead to a soft pliable dough. Brush with oil and wrap with cling film and set aside to rise for 1 or 2 hrs depends on ur climate and yeast too. Mine got doubled in a n hr.

  • Punch down and knead it once again. Flatten it using a rolling pin or just with your hands, measure it with your bread loaf pan. Make sure to make it a square. My bread loaf pan is 9X5 inches.

  • Start rolling from one edge. After rolling till the end, flip over and pinch like this to seal it.

  • Seam edges and place it inside the pan. If you don’t want a dome shaped bread then flatten it or close with a lid. I left it as such. Let it rise in the pan for at least 45mins.

  • Brush with top of bread with oil and bake in preheated oven at 170 deg C for 40-45mins or until the top turns golden. Mine got done in 40mins.

  • Once baked remove the pan and let it cool for 15mins then carefully invert and let it to cool down completely at least for 2hrs. If you don’t want the crust on top, use a wet cloth to cover and keep aside for few mins.

  • Use serrated knife to slice. Slice and serve. Serve as bread toast / plain bread.

Notes

  • Slice only after cooling down completely.
  • Do not invert when the pan is still hot, let it to cool for atleast 15mins before you convert.
  • The quantity of water to make dough depends on the variety of wheat flour too so add little by little.
  • You can use normal white sugar too.
  • I wanted my bread to be sweet so added 3 tablespoon in total though the orginal recipe called for 1 teaspoon.
  • Always use serrated knife to get neat slices.
