Yield Makes 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (1/4-ounce) package active dry yeast
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for pan
3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • In a large liquid measuring cup, mix together yeast, sugar, and water; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.

  • Uncover dough and transfer to oven; bake until bread is dark and golden on top and sounds hollow when tapped with your knuckles, 40 to 45 minutes.
