Ingredients

1 lb Handcrafted White Bread Mix (1 package, includes bread mix and yeast pack)
1 1/4 cups Lukewarm Water
2 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions

Instructions:

Preparation: Preheat your oven to 390°F. Grease a baking bread pan 9" x 5" or line it with parchment paper.
Mixing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread mix, warm water, and the yeast pack included in the package. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Kneading: Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 30-45 minutes.
Shaping: Punch down the dough, shape it into a loaf, and place it in the prepared pan. Cover with a clean cloth and let it rise again until doubled in size.
Baking: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
Cooling: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Stand Mixer Instructions:

Preparation: Attach the dough hook to your stand mixer.
Mixing: Add the bread mix, warm water, and yeast pack to the mixer bowl.
Kneading: Mix on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Kneading: Continue kneading for 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
First Rise: Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise until doubled in size.
Shaping: Proceed with shaping, second rise, and baking as described above.

Instructions for Bread Machine:

Add Ingredients to Bread Machine: Place the warm water, olive oil, Bread Mix, and yeast in the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Select Settings: Choose the Basic or White Bread setting on your bread machine. Select the desired crust color (light, medium, or dark).
Start: Close the lid and start the machine.
Wait: Allow the bread machine to complete the kneading, rising, and baking cycles. This will typically take about 3-4 hours, depending on your machine.
Cool: Once the bread is done, carefully remove it from the machine and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
