Make this easy, slightly sweet bread loaf using sweetened condensed milk for a tender crumb and rich flavor. It is perfect for breakfast toast or a satisfying snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons milk, for brushing

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add the granulated sugar, sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, and egg to the yeast mixture. Whisk until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups of the flour and the salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 8 to 10 minutes, adding the remaining 1/2 cup of flour as needed, until the dough is smooth and elastic. It should be soft but not sticky.
  6. Lightly grease a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size. This is your first proof.
  7. Gently punch down the risen dough. Shape it into a log and place it into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  8. Cover the pan loosely and let the dough rise again in a warm place for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the dough has crowned about 1 inch over the rim of the pan. This is your second proof.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  10. Brush the top of the dough lightly with the 2 tablespoons of milk.
  11. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
  12. Remove the bread from the pan immediately after baking and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • For an extra rich bread recipe, use whole milk in place of regular milk.
  • If you prefer sweet rolls recipe results, divide the dough into 12 equal pieces after the first rise and shape them into balls before placing them in a greased 9×13 inch pan for the second proof. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • This bread is a great alternative to honey butter bread when you want a slightly sweeter base flavor.
