Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm whole milk (about 110°F)
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and 1 tbsp sugar. Stir and let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.

  8. Slice vertically into 5 strips, stack, then cut into 5 stacks.
  9. Place pieces vertically into a greased and lined 9×5-inch loaf pan. Let rise for 30–40 minutes.
  10. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30–35 minutes until golden brown. Tent with foil if needed.
