Instructions

1. Mix the yeast, warm water and half the sugar in a small bowl and leave 10-15 minutes to activate.
2. Measure the flour, salt and remaining sugar into a large bowl. Once the yeast has activated, pour it in and mix to combine, then add the butter.
3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Put the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp tea towel and leave in a warm place for about an hour until doubled in volume.
5. Punch the dough down, shape it into a log and place it in a lightly greased loaf pan. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rise for 45 minutes until doubled in volume.
6. Bake at 200C/400F for 25 minutes. Remove the loaf from the pan straight away onto a cooling rack.
7. Leave to cool completely before slicing.
