Time 1h20m

Yield 1 loaf of bread, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon instant yeast
1 cup milk
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil
cornmeal, to sprinkle in pan

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and instant yeast.
  • Combine the milk, water, and oil in a microwave-safe bowl and heat to between 120°F and 130°F The liquid will feel very hot (hotter than lukewarm), but not so hot that it would scald you. As a reference point, the hottest water from your kitchen tap is probably around 120°F (unless your tap water is so hot that it burns you).
  • Pour the hot liquid into the bowl.
  • Beat at high speed for 1 minute. The dough will be very soft.
  • Lightly grease an 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan, and sprinkle the bottom and sides with cornmeal.
  • Scoop the soft dough into the pan, leveling it in the pan as much as possible.
  • Cover the pan, and let the dough rise till it's just barely crowned over the rim of the pan. When you look at the rim of the pan from eye level, you should see the dough, but it shouldn't be more than, say, 1/4" over the rim. This will take about 45 minutes to 1 hour, if you heated the liquid to the correct temperature and your kitchen isn't very cold. While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 400°F
  • Remove the cover, and bake the bread for 20 to 22 minutes, until it's golden brown and its interior temperature is 190°F
  • Remove the bread from the oven, and after 5 minutes, turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool. Let the bread cool completely before slicing.

These muffins were a bit dry. I think I might have needed to add more milk.

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the dough.
