This easy white bread recipe is my go-to when I’m craving something warm, soft, and honestly way better than store-bought. You know the kind—the loaf that makes the whole kitchen smell like a bakery at sunrise? That’s this. No bread machine needed, just a bowl, a spoon, and a bit of patience. You’ll be surprised how relaxed making bread can be—kneading dough is like the adult version of popping bubble wrap. It’s fluffy on the inside, with that golden, slightly crisp crust we all pretend not to pick at before the loaf cools. It slices like a dream, toasts beautifully, and makes you feel like a pro—even if it’s your first time playing with yeast. I’ve used this for sandwiches, French toast, and once, as a pillow (kidding… mostly). Loaded with everything you’d want in a classic white loaf, this recipe checks all the boxes. It’s perfect for beginners, great for weekend bakers, and ideal if you just need to knead your stress away. Let’s bake some bread, shall we?
