Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a large bowl. Mix and create a well at the center.

Add the butter and the milk. Stir with a wooden spoon till a wet mass of dough is formed. About 1-2 minutes.

Cover the bowl and leave to rest for five minutes. After five minutes, open the bowl and mix again for a few seconds.

Cover and leave to rest for 45 minutes to one hour.

Meanwhile, prepare two 9×5 loaf pans by brushing them with butter and sprinkling some flour over it to coat all the inside of the pan.

Remove the dough from the bowl, place it on a lightly floured work surface and divide it into two halves.

Shape the dough into loaves – it’s very soft so it needs to be handled with care.

Gently place the shaped dough inside the loaf pan.

Cover the pan with a clean damp kitchen towel and leave to rest for 15 to 20 minutes.

Bake in a 350F preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or till a skewer inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean.

Serve with a spread of butter or jam, you can also toast or make a great tasting sandwich. Enjoy!
