One of the main purpose i bought a KA mixer is to bake fresh white bread to serve for breakfast. I have own this mixer for almost a year, if i can recall, i only made white bread not more than 2 times, hehehe.. Recently i just inspired by this good white bread recipe and making me to bake white bread again..
And now we even can enjoy this fresh homemade white bread with a cup of nice coffee (behind is my brand new Nespresso coffee machine)
We even make this into French toast with ham and cheese, YUM!
The dough is quite difficulat to handle, very soft and sticky, and it also required very long hour of waiting time. So I dont know when i will make this again..check the below recipe and you will know..
English white bread
(recipe source: adapted from ccm2poco)
Starter dough
300g High protein flour/bread flour
3/4tsp active dry yeast
200g milk

Main dough
1 and 3/4tsp sugar
1/2tsp salt
2tbsp milk powder
15ml water
10g butter, melted
Method
1. Tear the starter dough into pieces and mix with all ingredient except melted butter.
2. Using a stand mixer, knead till dough is well combined (about 3mins).
3. Add in melted butter, continue to knead about 10mins till dough is smooth.
4. Cover with cling film and keep aside to rise for 30mins.
5. Divide the dough into 3 portions, knead till a smooth ball and keep in baking pan to rest for 20mins.
6. Knead again and rest for 15mins, repeat this step for two times.
7. Pat each piece out to an oblong, then fold one end into the centre and the other in on top. Put into a buttered tin, rest for another 40mins.
8. Apply egg wash, bake at a pre-heated oven at 180c for 25mins.

The texture of this white bread still maintain soft after keep it overnight.

wow,有咖啡又有面包，很贴心~
这个食谱我也bookmark了，找一天也来做做~
WOW! you are tempting me to get a KA mixer too! Great looking loaf!
looks like a lot of resting time needed. Proofing is not so bad at least i can still go out from the house to do the things i needed to do but sometimes multiple resting for 10 and 20 minutes can get me impatient. But your bread looks absolutely gorgeous and so tempted looking at your french toast!!
唉，其实我也怕黏手的面团，这个我吃你的好了；）
You have fine culinary skills! The bread looks so good and moreover Im a bread lover. Luckily just had some good healthy bread just now.
Good luck!
Ooo, that looks so delicious. Very light and fluffy...

Making bread does take a long time but it is worth it because it taste so good. Your white bread looks very nice and soft.
Love it....looks extremely yum....
Love bread! Your bread looks great!
WOW Sonia, you made me speechless! Such a beautiful and fluffy bread over there! Envy you!!! :D
Sonia! First I want to say thank you for mentioning my name to Anncoo. She visited my site and told me about it. I was very happy to hear that you even thought of me. :-) Thanks!!!! And about this bread.... this looks like a soft Japanese toast. I miss this kind of bread so much. I'm so used to American sandwich bread which is not like this. I guess until I start baking my own bread I won't be able to enjoy something like this. Soft and moist and sigh... I miss it. Yay for Nespresso coffee machine! I'd love a cup of coffee with this bread. Yum!
The bread looks so soft!!! :) Well done!
Bread looks so soft and perfect .. I dont bake much, but seeing this I might start baking often :)

Sonia, your white bread looks really soft and fluffly. Good combination to go with a cup of coffee.
Oh yum.. u bought the Nespresso machine! so now we can go your house and have coffee :P
If the dough is sticky then the bread would be really soft and moist! I like!
sonia,
原來你那麼愛喝咖啡的。
還有coffee maker呢！
我和鯨魚一樣，
吃你的就好。
嘻嘻。。。
The bread does look really fluffy - just wondering if you've the same concern as me - when I use my KA mixer for kneading, I always have this fear that it'll explode on me cos the mixer gets so warm where the motor is!
PERFECT bake ~ The aroma n taste of homemade bread is unbeatable!
