My easy to make Farmhouse White Sandwich Bread is crusty on the outside with a buttery soft interior. It's the perfect homemade bread for sandwiches, toast or simply to spread with butter.

Ingredients

  • 600 g very strong white bread flour (plus extra for dusting)
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt / kosher salt
  • 1 tsp caster sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp instant yeast (I use Dove's Farm)
  • 50 g softened butter (4tbs)
  • 350 ml tepid water

Directions

  1. 1

    By hand: Mix the flour, softened butter, salt, sugar and yeast in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.

  2. 2

    Place your dough in a large greased bowl and cover.

  3. 3

    Transfer the dough to an oiled work surface.

  4. 4

    Using a sharp greased knife, make 3 slashes in your loaf at a 45° angle before lightly dusting your loaf top with a little flour.
