Categories     bread

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ½ cups buttermilk*
2 TBSP melted butter
2 TBSP sugar
1 tsp salt
3 ½ cups all-purpose or bread flour
1 TBSP yeast

Steps:

  • Combine buttermilk, butter, and sugar in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients, including yeast. Whisk dry ingredients together to combine, then add to buttermilk mixture in the mixing bowl. (I use a Kitchenaid Mixer.) Mix ingredients until well combined. I like about a quarter sized amount of dough to be sticking on the very bottom. If your dough looks a bit dry, add in another splash of buttermilk. Once you've achieved a good consistency, mix the dough on low for about 6-7 minutes. (Or knead by hand about 10 minutes.) Proper kneading is critical to great textured homemade bread!
  • Once dough is done kneading, cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour; until dough has doubled in size.
  • Punch dough down and knead several times. Shape dough (I like to roll mine, then tuck the ends under) and place in a greased bread loaf pan. Place dough back in the warm spot and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake dough for about 30-35 minutes- until top is golden brown. Let cool and slice.
  • *You can substitute regular milk + lemon juice for buttermilk, but you won't quite get the full texture and flavor of this bread. So add buttermilk to the grocery list; you'll love it!

Time 2h40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
¾ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 ½ cups buttermilk, room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon salt
6 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a small mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Combine buttermilk, butter, honey and the yeast mixture in a large mixing bowl. Add salt and two cups of the flour. Whisk well to combine. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well with a wooden spoon after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 6 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large mixing bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and put in a warm place to rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees F).
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 30 minutes or until the tops are golden and the bottoms of the loaves sound hollow when tapped.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Buttermilk: Opt for fresh buttermilk for the best flavor and texture. If unavailable, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Mixing and Kneading: Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly before adding the wet ingredients. This helps ensure an even distribution of ingredients. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Proper kneading develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in a better rise and texture.
  • Rising the Dough: Place the dough in a warm, draft-free area to rise. You can grease the bowl lightly to prevent the dough from sticking. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp cloth to maintain moisture. The ideal temperature for rising is between 75-85°F (24-29°C). Allow the dough to rise until it has doubled in size, usually taking about 1-2 hours.
  • Shaping and Baking: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air bubbles. Divide the dough into two equal portions and shape them into loaves. Place the loaves in greased loaf pans and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they have almost doubled in size. Bake the loaves in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cooling and Storing: Allow the bread to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
