Start with 4 cups of all-purpose flour in a mixing bowl.

Add 1 stick of softened unsalted butter to the flour.

Mix in 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt.

Add 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon of yeast to the mixture.

Pour in about 1.5 cups of lukewarm water, adjusting as necessary based on kitchen temperature.

Mix the dry ingredients and butter until well incorporated before adding the water.

Use a KitchenAid mixer with a dough hook to mix until a dough forms, being careful not to overmix.

Once the dough comes together, form it into a ball and place it in a bowl.

Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm spot until it has risen adequately.

Flour a surface and roll out the dough into the desired shape.

Butter a baking pan and place the shaped dough in it.

Put the pan in a warm oven to continue rising before baking.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the bread until golden brown, checking for doneness based on personal preference.
