Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning once to coat the top. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Shape the Loaf
Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Cover and let it rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
Bake the Bread
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bread for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and it sounds hollow when tapped.
Cool and Serve
Remove the bread from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy!
Tips for Success
Check Water Temperature: Ensure the water is warm but not too hot, as high heat can kill the yeast.
Add Flour Gradually: Avoid adding too much flour at once, as this can make the bread dense.
Store Properly: Wrap cooled bread in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container to keep it fresh.
