Set a gallon Ziploc bag in a bowl for support.

Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour to the bag.

Add 1/4 cup sugar to the bag.

Add 1 packet of active dry yeast to the bag and mix well.

Add 1 cup of warm water to the bag (temperature between 110-120°F).

Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and mix the ingredients together.

Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes covered with a towel.

Melt 1/2 stick of butter and let it cool slightly.

After 10 minutes, add another cup of flour and 1.5 teaspoons of salt to a bowl and mix them together.

Open the bag, add the flour and salt mixture, and the melted butter to the bag.

Seal the bag again and mix until well combined.

Add a third cup of all-purpose flour to the bag, seal, and mix until fully incorporated.
