Make this soft, tender loaf bread using sweetened condensed milk for a rich flavor and fluffy crumb. This recipe is simple enough for beginner bread bakers and makes a great breakfast toast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 105-115°F)
  • 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Combine the warm milk and sweetened condensed milk in a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
  3. Pour the yeast mixture and the egg into the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or stand mixer until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Add the softened butter. Knead the dough by hand on a lightly floured surface or with a dough hook for 8 to 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. The dough will be slightly sticky.
  5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Gently punch down the risen dough. Shape it into a log and place it into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  7. Cover the pan loosely and let the dough rise again in a warm spot for 30 to 45 minutes, or until it has crowned about 1 inch above the rim of the pan.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the last 15 minutes of the second rise.
  9. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
  10. Remove the bread from the pan immediately after baking and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • For an extra soft crust, brush the top of the loaf with melted butter immediately after it comes out of the oven.
  • If you prefer rolls, divide the dough into 12 equal pieces after the first rise, shape into balls, and place them in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish for the second rise before baking at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes.
  • This sweet bread recipe works well for making French toast the next day.
