EASY BREAD RECIPE:
1 1/3 cup warm water (100-110*F)
2 teaspoons active, dry yeast
2 teaspoons brown sugar or honey
1 egg
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, yeast, and sugar.
Stir until dissolved, then add in the egg and salt.
Add the flour one cup at a time. Once the mixture is too stiff to mix with a fork, transferred it to a well-floured countertop.
Knead for 4-5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if the dough is continues to stick to your hands.
Shape the smooth dough into a ball and place in a bowl. Cover with a dish cloth and let rise in a warm place for one hour (or until the dough has doubled).
Grease a standard-sized loaf pan (9"x5"). After the first rise is complete, punch down the dough and shape it into a "log". Place it into the loaf pan and allow to rise 20-30 more minutes, or until it starts to peek over the edge of the pan. Bake in a 350* oven for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly browned.

So I’m a 38 year old ex construction worker that is unable to work due to injury. I have made 4 loaves of bread off this video. It just keeps getting better every loaf. These are my first 4 loaves ever. Thank you for this. The struggle of working 80+ hour weeks to sitting at home is rough. Now I have something to do that relaxes me. Thank you for this. Gave me some hope for my life. Super relaxing.

[@mcneese68]

Just a pro tip on the pizza. You had a pizza stone to bake it on, but you put it in the oven with the pizza. Pizza shops usually have ovens that get way hotter than a normal house oven (1000F+ vs 500F). To help mimic this, you want to put the stone in the oven before the pizza and let it sit there for a while. Get your oven as hot as it can go and let the stone absorb the heat. Then when you put the pizza in, it’ll sit on that stone and the crust will immediately start to brown and bubble like you get at a restaurant.

I also punched the dough down twice and extended the rising time by another half-hour just because I was also in the middle of cooking dinner and the oven was occupied after the first rise.

[@DoodlingDucky]

@@jasmineabboud4942 brown sugar was the better option but both are good

[@rmacdonify]

Thank you for making this video! Every time I make bread I go here for the recipe. I've copied it down but I want to make sure you get as many views as possible. Happy bread making ❤

[@dramsalove]

Omg, this turned out perfectly (the second time)! I didn't lube up my pan enough the first time. My husband said he never wants store bread again.

[@wyattespenschied8694]

Good thing for this lady because now we won’t starve to death during the coronavirus crisis

[@daydaphne2207]

I love this!!! Mines is baking now so I’ll update with taste but every other video is 10,000 steps and dishes and this was …chefs kiss soooo simple

[@deborahgunther8454]

I’ve completely replaced store bought bread with this recipe - it’s much cheaper and so fun to enjoy the fruit of my labor. Thank you so much!

[@robincrowflies]

Yes, why spend $5 for a loaf of decent bread, when you can make your own for so much less, and have all the love and satisfaction of kneading, smelling the baking bread, eating hot out of the oven? Mmm. 😋

[@karessarodriguez5224]

Totally doubled it because we like to E.A.T. and it was delish! My mom (79yrs young) and dad (71yrs young) both were moaning “mmmmmmm” while eating two each. It was quite funny. Needless to say, they were fabulous! Thank you! We tried the loaf and the biscuits, they are already planning on trying the cinn buns and the pizza dough. 🥰 Thank you!

[@tommymotolla4604]

I remember watching this during lockdown! It's still on my to do list!!!!

[@LexieCreech]

Jill, because of you, I have finally mastered the basic bread. Thank you. It’s been many failures. I finally see I was using the crappy yeast packets. I used a jar today and it finally dissolved. Unfortunately I don’t have a Dutch oven yet so I’m about to see how I can bake it another way. However, just having the dough actually rise is a huge win in my eyes. Thank you So much!! Tired of spending money on stale store bread!!!

[@mommyshane1928]

I made this the other day since we cannot go out to buy bread and my family loved it. All my friends asked for the recipe so I shared this video to them. Thanks!

[@karenclarke1779]

Absolutely unfailable recipe ... We are baking to our hearts content because of this generous lady ... Many thanks 👍🎉

[@gvideoplace]

Thanks so much for your video - I made this and it was wonderful! My 16-year-old daughter ate almost the entire loaf right after I made it! So easy and your video really helped with instructions - made it much less intimidating to accomplish!

[@BluegrassRoze]

Lovely recipe! Bread proofing tip: if your oven has a pilot light, there’s no need to heat it at all and if your oven doesn’t have a pilot light, just turn on the actual oven light. It will warm your oven up to about 100 degrees f. which is perfect for yeast dough to rise in, without worrying about it being too hot to kill the yeast.

[@um8351]

Perfect!! I’ll do that. Thank you!!

[@evagand]

You’re a genius!

[@BayouBeauz]

Thank you for the awesome tip!!!

[@galatians327]

I should have done this. I heated my oven and then turned it off, put the dough in and when I went back in an hour, the dough was stuck to my bowl and super sticky. 🫠

[@eyesopened1268]

I lay an electric heating pad on my counter and turn it to medium high heat setting. I put the bowl with dough ball in it directly on the pad and let the warm heat do its magic

[@annaspanski2371]

Success!! The easiest recipe to follow, no extra bells and whistles. Thank you!

[@xqueenx83x]

Thanks for this recipe, I’ve tried and failed so many times off other videos but I think you explaining how the yeast activates really helped me and definitely is what went wrong with my other recipes. If your a complete beginner like me, this is the one to try. Thank you ❤

[@amandawhite723]

I love how simple you make recipes.. As a stay at home mom with a disability, that does not drive Between schooling my 3 children, cooking 3+meals a day, snacks,drinks,cleaning,laundry etc...well you know-I love it but, it gets tricky sometimes. But home made is best. Thanks!!💘 cooking with you!

[@mpg55555]

My pre-tween daughter, much to my chagrin and despite my sincerest of pleas, loves to play with slime. So I thought, maybe she'd enjoying playing with dough? But, neither of us had baked bread before. This was the first non-no-knead video I found. In short, loved it! The instructions were so simple, and the results, so yummy! Bonus points for the interlude featuring all those cute farm animals! My daughter and I had a great time baking the bread, and the entire family loved eating it!

[@corrinagarcia128]

I made this tonight my first loaf of bread ever besides bannana bread, and it came out awesome!!! Thank you

[@shanicegayle6383]

We’re out of bread without a way to get any till tomorrow so I decided to make some myself, this was the simplest recipe I could find and the bread was perfect. Blessings for such a simple and tasty recipe❤

[@SusanHowardhr]

First time bread maker and it turned out great. Perfect sandwich loaf. Thank you for making this so easy. Sorry about your curling iron burn, and I can sure relate.

[@gaklotz]

I tried making my own bread, and this is the first time it came out sooooo good. Thank you for sharing your baking skills

[@marjeanstalewski859]

Thank you so much dear for this recipe, I started making my own bread once again and this is wonderful…… Family of 6 …..

[@lisamitchell5064]

I've been struggling to make bread at home for over a year now. Thank you for this recipe and please know that I will never try another recipe ever again ! I've made it at least once a week since I first watched your video and it turns out perfect every time.

[@debbyr7320]

You made me feel right at home and that I can do this 🍞 bread because WE have the exact same oven:) (it gave me the confidence to try) Thank you

[@beckyray8746]

Lol...I have the same blue bowl!

[@CSmith-mm3kg]

I made this dough but added an extra 2 tbsp sugar to the dry flour and worked it in. After the dough had risen, I rolled it out to a half an inch thick, and cut it into 3 inch squares. I put them on a baking sheet and let them rise again. Brushed the top with egg wash. Then I baked them in the oven at 350 until the top was a beautiful golden brown and they looked like little pillows. Up on coming out of the oven I brushed them with melted sweet cream butter and let them cool. I then dusted half of them with powdered sugar. The other half I filled with fresh Bavarian Cream. WOW! There are no words. They were light, had the perfect texture, not too sweet, and they were a hit for sure. Almost like a yummy beignet. No doubt about it. This is a wonderfully versatile dough recipe!

[@MichaelOKC]

Question for you: Do you think that I can take this as a base and laminate with layers and layers of butter for a croissant?

[@MatthewRShiflett]

Sugar is poison

[@aiissabeth]

Can't wait to try this recipe after reading all the comments..seems like everyone who has tried has been super successful! Thanks so much!

[@dhartley3343]

I made your bread recipe today and it come out beautiful and really easy to make. I have become a big fan of your videos. Thanks Jill!

[@billywilliams1344]

I just used this recipe after another attempt using another one. Your awesome! The bread came out better than I expected! Love that I can use this for pizza or anything else! I used a duck egg and it was super rich and yummy! Thank you again!

[@autumtear702]

Easy clear understandable directions (takes away my old fears of the certain topics you mentioned (kneading, warm time, rise time, etc...) ), down to earth humble honesty--PERFECT! Can't thank you enough, I will make this weekend...Lov ya
