Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

Incorporate melted butter and eggs into the dough, mixing until smooth.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a round loaf.

Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the loaf.

Let the shaped loaf rise for another 30 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before slicing.
