This method delivers a “melt-in-your-mouth” crumb with a professional, “unbelievable” buttery finish.
Ingredients
• The “Magic” Liquid: 1 cup Warm Milk (the “secret” to a “velvety” crumb).
• The Sweetener Swap: 1-2 tbsp Raw Honey (to replace white sugar and feed the yeast).
• The “Lift”: 2 tsp Dry Yeast.
• The Flour Alternative: 3 to 3.5 cups Whole Grain Flour (like Spelt or Whole Wheat).
• The Star: 4 tbsp Softened Grass-fed Butter (plus extra for the “wow” finish).
• The Essential: 1 tsp Salt.
Preparation Steps
1. The Bloom: Mix the warm milk, honey, and yeast in a glass bowl. Let it sit for 10 minutes until it looks “unbelievable” and frothy.
2. The Mix: Stir in the flour and salt until a rustic dough forms.
3. The “Velvety” Touch: Incorporate the softened butter one tablespoon at a time. This is the “secret” to that professional, “bakery-perfect” texture.
4. The Rise: Cover and let the dough double in size (about 1–2 hours). It should look “unbelievable” and airy, just like the dough in your photo.
5. The Shape: Divide the dough into sections and place them in a greased loaf pan for a professional, tall rise.
6. The Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes until the tops are a deep, “steakhouse-quality” golden brown.
7. The Reveal: While still hot, brush the top with a “treasure” of extra butter. Serve warm for a “reborn” bread experience!
