Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
1 1/4 cups warm water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it’s frothy. This step helps activate the yeast.
Once the yeast mixture is ready, add the flour and salt. Mix until the ingredients come together to form a dough.
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. This is an essential step to develop the bread’s structure.
Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Shape it into a loaf or rolls, depending on your preference.
Place the shaped dough into a greased loaf pan or on a baking sheet. Cover again and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Before baking, you can brush the top of the loaf with a bit of olive oil or melted butter for a golden crust.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom and is a beautiful golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack. Slice and enjoy your freshly made bread!

There you have it! A simple and scrumptious 5-ingredient bread recipe that’s sure to impress. Whether you’re slathering on some butter or using it for sandwiches, homemade bread always tastes better!
