I made this bread with my new Kitchen-aid mixer and followed your directions and video while I made it, and this loaf was perfect and tasted just like any bread I could buy in a bakery. The loaf was so soft and sliced like a dream. I let it cool completely and wrapped it in pure linen and put it my cake dome. Thank you for a perfect demonstration!!!…from Texas

[@Sara-gl8ue]

I made a mistake and added 2 cups of milk to this recipe. It turned out to be the most wonderful mistake I could have made because it turned out to be the best loaf of bread I've ever made! Very moist and delicious.

[@Redstaryeast]

Glad you enjoyed the bread!

[@ziggymorris8760]

That will definitely moisten it

Thanks for the video. I’ve an old guy who’s been making bread like my Mother taught me 60 years ago and have always hand kneeled it. I just was given a Kitchen Aid mixer and thought I’d try to make it the modern way.

[@Redstaryeast]

That's awesome! Enjoy the mixer and happy baking :)

I tried this recipe yesterday, it is the first bread I have ever made in my life, it turned out really great, I found your instructions really easy to follow, Thank you

I am 39 years old. I feel like I have peaked in adulthood. This bread was a great accomplishment for me. Easy recipe to follow. 👏🏼

I've made over 10 loaves of bread with this recipe. It's become my favorite.

Thank you. I followed your steps yesterday and it came out perfect. My kids loved it.

[@80fredster23]

My first time making homemade bread, and this recipe really was easy to follow. The bread turned out great! Thank you so much!

[@Redstaryeast]

Glad you liked it!!

[@countessberrywood]

This is my go-to bread recipe! I learned how to knead and bake bread decades ago, and now I let the mixer do the work! Great video!

[@Redstaryeast]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@pbannisa1599]

thank you so much for sharing.. I've been longing for this video, coz i never succeed making bread with a standing mixer.. but thanks to you, now i know how to made one

[@andyjame9687]

To say that i am pleased with my kitchenaid artisan is an understatement!! kzbin.infoUgkxV-4_UFTAJEegRY8I2jrpCEthOr39izrZ I have had it for 3 months now, and i wonder how i baked without it!! It has plenty of power, it is easy to use, is very secure on your counter and has a new type of splash guard that is wonderful. With all the color options, you can find one that will look beautiful on your counter. This machine comes with a deep 5qt bowl that locks into its base for secure mixing, so you never have to worry that the bowl will "spin away" while you move away from the machine. It can handle the lightest whipped cream or the heaviest bread dough with ease. There are only two drawbacks to this machine, and they are minor. One, it only comes with one bowl, and secondly, you have to be careful not to overbeat some batters. This machine is strong. If you like to bake, and you buy anything but a kitchenaid, you will probably be disappointed!

[@mgibson1242]

Amazing video, after many years and failed attempts, I followed along with this video exactly and finally have perfect bread! Thank you!!

[@Redstaryeast]

Great to hear!

[@ChopinSchubert]

10/10 for simplicity and clarity. good english!

[@walkingwiththemosthighgod4507]

Agreed

[@freemel8929]

I watched another video for dutch oven style and it was a nightmare to mix the dough using the dough hook, mixing it first with the beater and THEN switching to the dough hook to knead makes SO much more sense. Thank you! Can't wait to try this recipe for loaf style.

[@Redstaryeast]

Happy baking!

[@katiejohnson1031]

I really liked this video as it helped me with my first attempt at bread making in 20+ years. Very detailed! I had my tablet in my kitchen and fast forwarded and went backward many times in my venture into bread making. It came out well and I'm looking forward to more loaves of bread in my future. This loaf was pretty good!

[@Redstaryeast]

So glad you enjoyed the video. Happy you're back to making bread at home!

[@paulinehubman1927]

been baking bread for years, but you had good tips, and I just got a kitchen aid mixer, trying tomorrow, you well very concise and enjoyed watching, thank you

[@StephenKing247]

Just made this for the first time today, my family loved it. This was also the first time I tried making bread from scratch. Thank you!

[@cogginslorri]

tried to make bread with the recipe given with my mixer. not impressed. So now i think i'm going to try your method. looks soooooooooo good

[@MrScottie68]

So glad to have found this video. So many other videos on here either use scales to measure ingredients (which the average person does not have) or they use metric measurements which make no sense to those in the USA. Addendum: I have tried this recipe now 3x and each time it turned out perfectly. I do however proof in a regular oven and not the microwave. At the beginning of mixing I set oven temp to 180F and once temperature is reached I immediately shut off the oven off. By the time all the mixing is done, it's the perfect temp inside for proofing.

[@theThinkerator]

scales are cheap, and metric is perfect for cooking.... you can recreate, exactly, recipes over and over

[@DiannaAtherton]

@@theThinkeratorO yes because prior to electronic scales no one ever made great recipes over and over.

Coming out of the oven, that loaf looked mighty fine! I wish you would have sliced it, though, so we could see the inside texture.

[@chefmarie90]

I bought the Kitchenaid mixer to make bread because I have bad hands and couldn't knead it ,I looked on youtube to find out how to make it in this mixer came across your video and now my bread turns out perfect. The only thing for me not sure if others had the same problem (like I said I have bad hands) is after I was done I couldn't twist the bowl off the mixer ,I guess it was from the force of the dough going around lol ,anyway now what I do is put a little lard on the base where the bowl tightens and it comes off easier.

[@thecommunityofpeace6905]

Thank you for your recipe! I followed your instructions and my bread came out GREAT!

Just made this, my first time making bread. Super good everyone loves it. I didn’t have any bread flour so I used all purpose, it came out a little dense, but I think it might be the pan I used. I used a glass pan slightly smaller than in the video. Ordering better bread pans and bread flour for next time! Very easy directions, thank you!

[@Redstaryeast]

Great to hear! Thanks for baking along with us.

Hello// tried your bread recipe today.. gave a few loafs to my neighbors.. loved it

I agree with the other comments this was a great easy to follow video. I’ve watched so many and this method worked best especially if you have a stand mixer! Thanks!

[@torresma1325]

This was very helpful. My first attempt turned out excellent.

[@Redstaryeast]

Yay!

[@chrissyk3783]

The time has come again to start making bread at home... About 2 weeks ago I seen a loaf of bread at safeway for $10 (not even gluten free type). Then 4 days ago was shopping an seen another for $12 (it was a special type but still thats crazy) Overall i think a loaf is averaging 7 bucks a loaf.. im not sure because i make at home now. I love her recipe!! Kitchen aid is worth the investment. I basically paid it off in 6 weeks. Went to coop grocery and they are selling 6 small muffins for 7 bucks. Start baking everyone, the prices wont drop until people refuse to pay those prices.I make breads,muffins and cakes with my kitchen aid. I also make chocolaty puff wheat squares but dont need kitchen aid for that,very quick and easy to make that choco treat for the family. From Canada

Michelle DeChaine could you share your experience with this recipe? Thanks

[@michelledechaine3259]

Tatiana Rivera it turned out perfect!!! I was confused with the kneading part- I don’t have the instructions in front of me, but it was spot on 👍🏻 I now have to make my mom and mother in-law a loaf 😂 I also used a glass loaf pan and all-purpose flour (not sure if it called for bread flour)...I will always use this recipe now 🥰

I have tried your recipe a few different times now and as I am a beginner I have to say you made it very easy to follow and the bread is delicious. Thank you I also wonder can you double this recipe to make two loaves ?

Hi Tina - Yes, you can double the recipe as long as the stand mixer can handle that amount of dough. Happy baking!

I am in the process of making this recipe right now. I told you instructions pretty exactly what is the first time I have made bread using a stand mixer it rolls, but it did not rise nearly as high as yours did so I'm letting approve a little bit more and then I'm gonna put it in the oven and just go with whatever I get but I like the way you did the bread Dell also my yeast was dated as expiring this month, so is it OK to use the yeast? If it's you use it in the last month it's good for.

[@greg6107]

great video thank you.

[@Redstaryeast]

[@summersez1673]

I really wish you had shown on camera how you checked the dough to see if it had been kneaded enough. Looking at that tiny picture on the website just isn't very clear to me. I do appreciate the video and the rest of it is very clear.

[@ziggymorris8760]

Thank you ma’am

[@katherinesmith9602]

almost ready for the oven made it with my 4 year old.

[@jadeplummer2964]

I've made this recipe multiple times and I really like how easy it is. 1 thing I've noticed with mine is after I get done kneading it my dough ball is still a little gooey and doesn't all stick to the paddle like hers. Should I add even more flour? I'm currently adding the 2 and a half cups and then and additional half a cup through the mixing till it peels from sides of bowl.

[@jme6ection]

I don't have bread flour, so do I need to do anything different when using unbleached all-purpose flour?

[@sandrasealy7411]

Great video

[@Redstaryeast]

Thanks!

[@mandiigraham1596]

What a great tutorial. I now know what I have been doing wrong. Too many times people (with all good intentions) leave out information/strips that is important. Looking forward yo having another go. But I have a question please. Does the microwave have a special setting for proving?

[@RenatusPhoenix19]

Proofing in the microwave. She needs a warm place (no draft) to aid in the proofing process. You don't turn it on. Some people use a corner or shelf that that doesn't get drafty. The microwave is a good option because the door is closed and eliminates any draft. You could just as well use a stove, that hasn't been on recently.

[@Redstaryeast]

Hi Mandii - We're glad to hear that you found this video helpful. Here's a link to rising tips, including the microwave method: redstaryeast.com/yeast-baking-lessons/baking-steps-guide/rising-ripe-test-first-rise/

[@apples4rio]

Mandii and others. I stumbled upon a pizza tutorial that mentioned placing your dough in the oven (overnight for pizza dough) with the light on. And OMG! It really worked. The light bulb provided just enough warmth

[@marilyntolan9583]

I use that method all the time. Just turn oven light on a few min. before & it works well. Of course, Don't turn the oven on til you're just about ready to bake. Good luck.

[@gsxrsquid]

I made a loaf and it came out very nice. I made a second load and the first proof was fine but the second it did not rise as much. After the first loaf is gone I will cut into it. I did use fresh ground hard white wheat.

[@Redstaryeast]

Hi Dennis - we're so glad you enjoyed the bread. We'd be happy to help you troubleshoot -- contact us here: redstaryeast.com/contact-us/

Need to push the hinge pin back into your mixer. Will stop the wobbling. Loved the video.

[@GmGarlo]

I have red star instant dry yeast , how many grams will i need for this recipe ?

[@conniehalstead5469]

Trying to make sure, but what is the max flour for this recipe? I started with the 2 1/2 cups, added 1 1/2 cups more and then maybe less than a half a cup spoonful by spoonful-granted you are watching for the dough to pull away, but just didn’t want to use more than I should.

[@Shisimocha3]

I came to your video because I am considering purchasing a KitchenAid stand mixer like you have, but there are so many KitchenAid models with different watts, and I am not sure what wattage can handle bread dough. What is the wattage of yours?

[@gimbolwari7405]

While you keep your bread inside microwave do we have to switch on ? Can you explain that

[@Redstaryeast]

Hi Gim - Here's a link to the microwave proofing directions: goo.gl/ygQh9S. Do not have the microwave turned on while the dough is inside.

[@tarahcaverly5439]

Is it possible to freeze the dough to bake at a later time and how would I go about that?

[@Redstaryeast]

Hi Tarah - Here's a link to tips for freezing dough: redstaryeast.com/yeast-baking-lessons/postpone-baking/. Happy baking!

Beautiful bread and thank you for sharing. I live in Europe and not so familiar with cups measurements. Can you please tell me how much ml/oz your 1 cup says which you use for the flour? Thanks in advance 😊.

[@Redstaryeast]

Hi Mon Chi - There's approximately 113.5 grams per cup of all-purpose flour (454 grams per 4 cups) Happy baking! Carol@RSY
