Home made White bread sans bread maker

Adapted from instruction book from A_quick_small_white_loaf and Basic white Bread.

Ingredients

  • 5ml fast acting, dried yeast.
  • 400g Strong white flour.
  • 5ml sugar.
  • 15ml sunflower seed oil.
  • 5ml salt.
  • 280ml lukewarm water (during proving and baking, the bread will dry out, so it may be worth adding water during the proving stages).

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients into Kenwood Chef - use a metal bowl if possible.
  2. Using the Dough Hook on minimum speed gradually add the water to a soft dough.
  3. Knead for 1 minute on minimum.
  4. Knead for 4 minutes on speed 1, until smooth and elastic. Remove the Kenwood Bowl, cover with lightly oiled clear film and leave to rise in 40°C oven 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Using the Dough Hook on minimum speed for 30-60 seconds gently knead the dough to knockback.
  6. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and shape to fit in bread tin - a smaller bread tin should be enough, 500 - 750g.
  7. Place back in proving oven and leave to rise for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  8. Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas 7.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
  10. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before knocking out of tin.

A bread maker is such a civilised machine for doing this!
