I came across this recipe for basic white bread (what the recipe called it), is a nice sandwich bread. Not to crumby and firm pain in taste. But it’s easy and cheap to make. I didn’t take pictures but used the dough from the other loaf to make cinnamon rolls, got ate too quickly.

    I do 500g flour, 2tsp instant yeast, 2 tsp sugar, 1.5tsp salt, 2tbsp olive oil or softened butter, and 320ml water. Throw it all into the bowl of a stand mixer and knead with the dough hook for 7-10 mins on high. Leave to rise for an hour then tip out onto a floured surface. Fold a couple of times then roll into a tight sausage and drop into a loaf tin. Cover and leave again for 45mins. Into the oven for 25 mins at 240C, then tip out of the tin upside down for another 5 mins.

    I do that 2–3 times a week, and it does ok for our family of 5. It should last 4-5 days with the oil in it. Bread flour is best, but plain/ap is perfectly acceptable.
