unsalted butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

active dry yeast

🥗Healthier: instant yeast

💰Cheaper: fresh yeast

Instant yeast can be easier to use, while fresh yeast is often cheaper.

egg

🥗Healthier: flaxseed meal

💰Cheaper: applesauce

Flaxseed meal is a great egg substitute for binding, and applesauce adds moisture.

Mix together warm milk, 1 tbsp of sugar, and yeast. Let it bloom for 10 minutes or until foamy.

In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and salt. Add egg and melted butter. Then add the yeast mixture. Mix until incorporated. Transfer to a floured counter.

Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Form into a ball. Place in an oiled bowl. Cover and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down the dough. Divide it into equal portions. Form the first half into a loaf and the second half into 3 equal portions and roll as shown in the video.

Place the formed/rolled dough in a greased loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Cover to rise. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes.

Brush risen dough with egg wash. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until light golden.

Serve and enjoy this super soft and fluffy milk bread.
