Soft Eggless Bread Recipe

1. Prepare the Dough:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Mix well.
Make a well in the center and add the warm milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract (if using).
Mix until a sticky dough forms. You can use a wooden spoon or your hands.

2. Knead the Dough:

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour as needed.

3. First Rise:

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.

4. Shape the Bread:

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a loaf. You can either shape it into a round or rectangular loaf, depending on your preference.
Place the shaped dough in a greased 9×5-inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan.

5. Second Rise:

Cover the loaf with a kitchen towel and let it rise again in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, or until it rises slightly above the rim of the pan.

6. Preheat the Oven:

7. Bake the Bread:

If desired, brush the top of the dough with a little milk for a golden crust.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

8. Cool and Slice:

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the bread and enjoy!

This bread is perfect for sandwiches, toast, or simply with butter and jam.
You can also add herbs or spices to the dough for additional flavor.
Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days, or freeze it for longer storage.
