Ingredients

Recipe Tips

To make the bread even softer, you can replace the all-purpose flour with bread flour. You can also add some herbs or spices to the dough to give it a more flavorful taste. If you don't have instant yeast, you can use active dry yeast instead. Just make sure to activate it first in warm water before adding it to the dough. Lastly, make sure to let the bread cool down completely before slicing it to avoid squishing the bread.
