  • Shape the Loaf: Punch down the dough to release air. Shape it into a loaf or place it in a greased loaf pan.
  • Second Rise: Cover and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes, until puffy.
  • Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the bread for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  • Cool: Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack before slicing.

    • Tips for Perfect Bread Every Time

    • Use warm, not hot, water to activate the yeast.
    • Don’t rush the rising process — good bread needs time to develop flavor and texture.
    • If you want a crispier crust, place a pan of water in the oven to create steam while baking.
    • Experiment by adding garlic, rosemary, or seeds to the dough for extra flavor.
