This fluffy country white bread is perfectly baked using few ingredients. A homemade version of that soft sandwich loaf that we buy from the stores. I would never imagine myself making bread because for me making yeast bread is intimidating. I thought it’ll be a lot of work and not as easy as eating them. But I’m lucky I’ve found this recipe, it makes everything easy. No, fancy making my bread feeling anymore.

HOW TO MAKE GRANDMA’S COUNTRY WHITE BREAD
Step 1: Place the yeast in a large bowl and dissolve in warm water.
Step 2: Add in the sugar, salt, eggs, oil, and 3 cups of flour. Beat the ingredients on medium speed until smooth. Pour in enough flour to get a soft dough.
Step 3: Place dough on a floured surface. Knead the dough for about 6 to 8 minutes until smooth and stretchy.
Step 4: Grease a bowl. Place the dough in it and turn it once to grease the other side.
Step 5: Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap and let the dough sit in a warm place to rise for about an hour.
Step 6: Press or punch down the dough and divide it in half. Then, shape into loaves.
Step 7: Meanwhile, prepare the oven by preheating it to 375 degrees.
Step 8: Ready two 9 x 5-inch loaf pans. Grease them accordingly.
Step 9: Place the loaves in the prepared pans, then cover with kitchen towels. Let them sit in a warm place to rise for about an hour.
Step 10: Place the pans inside the preheated oven and bake for 25*30 minutes until golden brown.
Step 11: Once done, remove the bread from the pan and transfer to wire racks to cool.
