Homemade Bread Recipe

I can't believe this was the first time I have ever made bread.  It was SO SO SO easy and it tasted like a giant soft pretzel. Yum.  We ended up eating the entire loaf....so much for resolutions!!

Homemade Bread Recipe from Instructables :

Ingredients:

• 3 cups of flour
• 3 tsp active dry yeast
• 3 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup of warm water
• 1 TBS butter
• 1 egg beaten 

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
2. In a stand mixer on low speed mix flour, yeast, sugar and salt.  While mixing, slowly add in the water and butter until the dough has formed.  
3. Roll your dough into a ball and allow to rest for approximately 10 minutes. 
4. After the dough has rested, divide the dough into two equal parts and roll into two rolls about 15 inches long. 
5. Put the two rolls next to each other and "braid" them together. 
6. Place your bread onto a greased pan and brush your beaten egg evenly over the top. 
7. Bake for 30 minutes.
8. ENJOY!
