Easiest Milk Bread Recipe! | The Woks of Life

Measure out 160 ml of heavy cream and pour it into a mixing bowl.

Measure out 250 ml of whole milk and add it to the mixing bowl with the heavy cream.

Crack 1 egg into the mixing bowl with the milk and cream.

Let the wet ingredients sit for 45 minutes to an hour to come to room temperature.

After the wet ingredients have warmed up, measure out 75 g of sugar and add it to the mixing bowl.

Zero out the scale and measure 570 g of flour, adding it to the mixing bowl.

Zero out the scale again and measure 10 g of yeast and 11 g of salt, adding them to the mixing bowl.

Mix the ingredients on the stir setting until the dough comes together, which should take about 15 minutes.

If the dough is too wet, add a tablespoon of flour as needed.

Periodically push the dough together to ensure even kneading and to prevent it from sticking to the hook.

After 15 minutes, check the dough; it should be soft and not sticking to the sides of the bowl.

Flour your hands slightly to handle the dough and remove it from the mixing bowl.

Cover the dough and microwave a large mug of water until boiling.

Place the covered dough in the microwave alongside the mug of boiling water and close the door, letting it proof for an hour.

Check the dough at 45 minutes to see if it has doubled in size; if not, continue proofing for up to an hour, reheating the mug of water if necessary.
