Hi Judy... 1. Yes you can use quick instant yeast. 2. Knead for about a minute or so. 3. It's ok if the oil is mixed into the dough during kneading. You can substitute butter for the shortening. For example. this recipe you will need 1/2 cup of butter and 4 Tablespoons of shortening.. (replace the 4 Tablespoons of shortening with 4 Tablespoons of butter) I hope I answered your questions.

Tried this again and my dough was very dense. Didn't rise. Left it overnight and still didn't rise. I did bake it and it rose a little but the bread was so dense and heavy. Yours looked so nice and fluffy.

[@krad1314]

Might be a problem with the yeast. Either old/ expired yeast or your liquid mixture was too hot and killed the yeast culture. Try storing your yeast in the fridge and checking with your finger if your liquids are any hotter than luke warm (like if your tap water just started to become warm). Good luck for next time! This recipe is amazing !

[@joanarruda3680]

Nancy, love your channel. I made this recipe this weekend and found the dough much stickier than when I make a big bag of flour of bread. Silly question, do you scoop your flour or spoon it into a measuring cup? I tend not to scoop but fill my measuring cup. Just wondering if I didn’t have enough flour. The massa turned out very well in spite of that. I think next time I will scoop and see if it makes a difference. Thanks for all the recipes.

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Joan, I use a 250ml dry ingredient measuring cup and I scoop the flour and level it. It's ok if your dough is sticky. Use some vegetable shortening on your hands to avoid the dough from sticking to your hands when you are placing it in the pan. The massa will be light and airy once you place the dough in the pan and let it rise. You can email me at [e-mail] Happy Baking😊

[@joanarruda3680]

@@diywithnancyg1502 thanks for response. Joan

[@Mellie726]

Thank you for this recipe Nancy for a smaller amount. Where in your house do you place the massa for rising? I think my mistakes have been 1) using an electric blanket (maybe too hot) 2) putting in front of an electric fireplace over the weekend. I think maybe too much heat deflates the dough?

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Melinda. I let the massa rise in my kitchen island or table. Here are a few tips; 1. The best time to make massa for me is later in the evening...8 or 9 p.m. or very early in the morning 5 or 6 am, that way you can give the dough time to rise; 2. Cover the dough with 2 or 3 towels or blankets. 3. Make sure your yeast (if using dry yeast) is not expired; 4. You can place towels or blankets in the dryer to keep them warm and use them to cover the dough. My mother placed the dough for the massa in the furnace room to rise... that was her warm place in the house. Try not to keep uncovering the dough.. I hope I was able to answer your question.😊 You can email me at [e-mail] if you have any questions.

I plan on trying the sweet bread this weekend with pans on the way from Portugalia Marketplace in Fall River Mass. What size bowl do you use to kneed in?

[@diywithnancyg1502]

The large bowl size is 12" deep by 16" in diameter. If you don't have a large one, you may need to use 2 or 3 extra large bowls. Knead the dough in one large bowl, after the last knead and you added the vegetable oil 2X, then separate the dough into 2 or 3 large bowls, so that the dough has room to rise in a warm room (covered). Thank you for your question😊

Hi, I was really exceited watching you and following exactly how you made your Massa. I cook and bake a lot so I thought this would be perfect as your recipe looked so light and delicious. BUT i had a really hard time with the first knead of the flour with the liguiods etc. SOOOOO t=sticky it was impossible to get it to pull together. I had to add more flour and now I am just working through the rest ...........I sure hope this works out....but maybe you tell me what I am could possibly be doing wrong?? Other than that I will report on how they eventally work out>>>

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Ellen.... the exact measurements are important. It is sticky when kneading and as you let it rise and continue kneading it becomes a thicker dough. If there is too much liquid, then yes it will be sticky, at which time you will need to add more flour gradually if the liquid measurement is not correct. Thank you🥰

[@suew4609]

Your bread looks delicious! I have some questions. I have a recipe for Portuguese Sweet Bread handed down from my great-grandmother, who was from the Azores. It was a staple in our house at Easter. It is different from yours in that she didn't use Lemon Zest, the ratio of sugar to flour is 1:6 instead of 3:9, no shortening just butter and a bit more, the 1st knead is 15-20 min. done on table, rise until double, let stand 10min., divide into 2 rounded flattened loaves on sheet pan or pie pans, rise again till almost doubled, brush with egg mixture, and bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes. I think it comes out a little denser than yours. I have searched and seen 2 others that made theirs more like this, everyone else made it like yours. Do you know if there's any difference in the region people came from, or from mainland Portugal to the Azores? My people were on the Azores for 350 years or more. Also, what's the difference between Pão Doce and Massa Savada? They look the same, as far as I've seen. I'd love to hear what you think about the differences. If you have any questions please ask! ask

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi, you can substitute the shortening with butter... I was shown how to make massa/pao doce, which is one in the same, it depends where you are from in Portugal. Friends and family from the mainland, call it Pao Doce, and others from the Acores may call is massa souvada. You don't have to add lemon zest, but it does provide the sweetbread with a delicious flavour. I hope I answered your questions. Thank you😊

[@kathidrake1551]

What rack in the oven do you put the sweet bread on? Is it the bottom right second to the bottom middle?

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Kathi. When I make the massa I remove the middle rack (and I leave 2 racks in the oven) and place 2 on the top rack and 1 in the lower rack. When I see that the top of the bolos de massa is lightly brown, I switch the bottom one to the top rack and place the 2 on the top to the bottom. (I do this step usually after 30-35 minutes after placing the massa in the oven). When you do this step.... take your time and switch them gently and carefully) If I'm making a larger recipe 6 or more, I use the same concept. That way the massa is evenly browned on top and bottom. I hope this answers your question. 😊

[@jrplops89]

Hi Nancy, thanks for the detailed explanation on making the massa. I grew up eating my grandmother's massa and because it is easter time I wanted to finally learn to make it myself. We used your recipe precisely except only half of all the measurements to make sure I've got the process down before making a larger batch. So we did half the dough and made it into two loaves. Cooked at 305 for 1hr as suggested, but since my loaves would have been about 80% of the size of your loaves, I suspect I should have used a shorter cook time or else a lower temp. The taste is perfect and the inside texture is good but the outer crust ended up quite a bit harder than it should be (more like a sourdough loaf). Do you have any advice on whether I should shorten the cook time or reduce heat in this scenario? Thanks again for the great lesson.

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Justin. I'm not sure the size of your pans... but I can tell you... when i make small round bolos de massa (e.g. my pan size 4" or 6") Start the temp at 300F and bake for 30-45 minutes ... it can take less time). I start by placing my massa in the bottom rack... once I see that the massa is starting to lightly brown on top... (20-25 minutes mark) I place the massa on the top rack to finish the baking and reduce the oven temp to 295F. Place a skewer in the massa at the 30 minute mark. If it comes out clean you know it's ready. Keep an eye on it... that way you can determine the baking time based on the size of your pan. I hope I answered your question.. Happy Baking..😊

[@kathycadile6421]

Ok tried this again. Everything was going along just fine. My yeast was bubbling and looked very active. I did all the kneading, at least I thought I did, maybe it wasn't enough. Anyway I let the dough rise for 4 hours but it didn't rise. It remained pretty solid. I still divided it into the 3 pans and then let them rise (?) again but nothing. They just didn't rise. I left them overnight to see if they would rise and nothing. I still baked them and they rose a little in the oven but they still were very dense. What could have happened. Your loaves look so light and fluffy. I can't believe this happened again.

[@inesburke1827]

Sometimes if the yeast is old it doesn't rise happened to me one time

[@jorlege]

The milk and butter need to be lukewarm, otherwise will kill the yeast

[@mariasimas1449]

Also, when it’s rising on the pan, you have to make sure it’s warm place or else it will cool down the batter and it won’t rise properly.

[@thegatesofdawn...1386]

I proof my yeast before I make the dough. Hot water and sugar, best and add yeast cover to let activate.

I used to buy sweetbread from Cornerstone Bakery in Fall River, MA but now that I moved it is too expensive to ship so I wanted to try to duplicate it. Can't wait to try this but I would like the written recipe. Tried to follow along on the video but it was difficult.

Well I made the sweet bread (at least I thought I was). Seemed everything went well until I put it in the oven. Bread didn't rise much and it took forever to nicely brown on top. I checked my recipe thinking I did something wrong and I think I may have left out the sugar. The bread tasted awful and was not light and fluffy. Do you think that could have been the issue. I couldn't believe I did something like that. All those ingredients and I did such a stupid mistake. I was so looking forward to some nice sweet bread. If not the sugar, what do you think could have been the problem?

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Kathy, don't be discouraged. Things happen, you absolutely need the sugar... (it's not stupid), things happen (you are not the first or last) it's sweetbread and needs to be sweet. Yes, a lot of ingredients out the window....I'm sorry that happened to you. Make sure that your yeast has not expired (that can be a reason why dough doesn't rise as well) When I first made sweetbread 20 years ago, I forgot to place the yeast.... yes... how could I forget that... I'm proud of you for trying... feel free to email me at [e-mail] with any questions. Keep your head up.... you got this... time and patience. Refer to the description box under this recipe for the best time to start making massa sovada. 🥰 Thank you for your question.

How long do you knead

[@diywithnancyg1502]

Hi Zachary. You will knead until all the mixture comes together... anywhere from 8 to 10 minutes. I hope i answered your question.😊

[@monicad.657]

@@diywithnancyg1502 thanks I need to know this too. 8 minutes all together? U wait for 20 minutes as it rises then knead, do you need for another 8 minutes or just a few? Please clarify? Thank you!
