INGREDIENTS
500 Gr. Bread flour (You can also use All purpose flour)
10 Gr. Salt
1 Egg at room temperature
60 Gr. Butter at room temperature (cut in small cubes)
10 Gr. Dry yeast
30 Gr. Sugar
30 Gr. Powder milk
275 Gr. Lukewarm water
PREPARATION
In a bowl of a mixer with a dough hook, pour the yeast, sugar and water and with a spoon, stir until the sugar has dissolved. Add the flour, salt, milk and the egg and mix until well incorporated. Mix this batter at low speed for 5 minutes, until all ingredients are well incorporated, then increase the speed to medium and pour the butter cut in small cubes, a few at a time, until fully incorporated in the dough.
Cover the bowl with a tea towel and let the dough rise until double; about 1 hour. After an hour, deflate the dough and cut into 4 equal pieces. I use a small scale to ensure consistency.
Butter 4 small bread pans or 2 larger ones.
In the meantime, preheat your over at 180 Degrees Celsius. Bake the breads for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown. When cool enough to handle, place them on a rack to cool completely, then cut them in small slices.
I usually cut all the breads and freeze the slices for the best morning toasts !
