Instructions

1. Mix the yeast with slightly warm water (100–110°F / 43°C) and 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until frothy.
2. Add the remaining sugar, milk powder, salt and bread flour, and mix until a dough ball forms.
3. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. In a stand mixer with the dough hook, knead for about 5–7 minutes instead.
4. Knead in the oil and softened butter until fully incorporated.
5. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1–2 hours, until doubled.
6. Deflate the dough gently, divide it into two equal portions and shape each into a tight loaf, tucking the edges under. Place seam-side down in greased loaf pans.
7. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the dough is just above the rim of the pans.
8. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) when the dough has risen about 60% in the pan.
9. Bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown. If the tops brown too fast, cover them loosely with aluminum foil.
10. Remove from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Store in an airtight container.
