i make this bread several times a week and it is great! in saying that, it also is unpredictable. one time i will make it and the dough seems too dry, next time it is sticky and tacky! the time it takes to rise (the first time) is usually for me between and hour and an hour and a half and the second time (after punching down and transferring to pans) no less than an hour. i keep my home fairly cool in the summer. regardless of the dryness or how sticky or tacky the dough is, when baked, it comes out perfectly. do NOT be discouraged if your dough doesn't seem exactly right. this dough is nearly fool proof. : )

I have been using this recipe for months and it AWESOME! It is beautiful, cuts easily, strong enough for peanut butter, but soft as any store bought bread. I love it! And it's versatile. If you take it (after beating it down after first rise) and roll it out add some cinnamon and sugar and raisins, roll it up, let it rise...cook for maybe 5 extra minutes....makes a wonderful cinnamon raisin bread!

I join the ranks of all those who've rated this with 5+ stars! My very first attempt making bread dough. It's been raining pretty much non-stop where I live for last 5+ weeks, so good way to spend another rainy Sunday. Couldn't believe how perfectly they came out - was so proud of myself! I made sure to read many posts first, so I cut the sugar amount in half. Altho I like sweet breads, any more would've been too much. I also made mine in 8.5" x 4.5" pans so they did rise a bit too high. Next time I'll use 1 cup less flour, even if using 9x5 pan - nightmare trying to stir that last cup in & doesn't seem necessary. This is an amazing bread; my husband crazy about it & both loaves were gone in 3 days, w/just the 2 of us! It's easy AND delicious, & like so many others wrote, I will never buy store bread again!!

This a very good bread. It has a nice soft texture and a rather plain flavor which makes it good to use for sandwiches. However, I found that 350 made my bread very well done on the outside after about 18 minutes and the inside wasn't all the way done. I think a lower temp for a longer time would be better. Good recipe though and I'll certainly try it again because the parts that were cooked were delightful.

Very tasty bread. Soft and fluffy and has a slightly crispy crust. Great for making sandwiches.

We have stopped buying bread. This is the one we love. Easy to do and a wonderful flavor. I have used this recipe to make a yummy cinnamon raisin bread. I will, at time just mix in dried fruit when I knead the dough. Simplly delightful.

This is a great bread! It's slightly sweet and has a nice density to it. Another plus it that it doesn't take all day to make.

This bread is simple and delicious with just the right amount of "sweet"! It's best when served warm. I let it cool on a rack for about 20 minutes before serving. All this needs is a little butter, and yum...I could eat the whole loaf by myself! This was also a huge hit with my 2 year old daughter.

Easy to make and beautiful when finished. I too cut back on the sugar for regular loaves but I also used it to make cinnamon buns - as is - and they were amazing!

Easy and delicious! I cut the recipe in half and added 2 cups white bread flour and 1 cup whole wheat bread flour and it's the best tasting bread I've made yet. This recipe goes in my collection!

absolutely perfect and was the exact taste i was hoping for! this is the first bread recipe i've ever made with yeats and couldn't be simpler. I did read some reviews, but decided to stick with all called for ingredients. I LIKE the sweetness of the bread, it's great for all types of sandwiches or even by itself or as toast! I didn't know what to expect for yeast 'proofing', but do make sure the temperature is 110!! It'll get a nice caramel-colored foamy top and that's when you know it's "proofed." Also, don;t forget about your pan loaves rising like I did for an hour cause they'll grow to 6+" above the pan, whoops. They do 'deflate' so to speak if you touch them. Overall, tonight is the second time i've made this recipe in a week. That's 4 loaves of bread between my boyfriend and I, so it really is delicious. THANK YOU!

This was really good and easy. I did cut the sugar down due to other reviewers and it still had a nicely sweet taste. I used mostly allpurpose flour as that's all I had. I am not a fan of really dense breads but store is so much air, this is a nice inbetween. Will be making more!

This was GREAT, so good in fact that I registered after years of using this site just so I could review it! So simple and straight forward. Nice to find a recipe that wasn't written for a bread machine. A little on the sweet side, that's the only reason this wasn't a 5 star bread for me. I halved the recipe because I have only one loaf pan - will be making another tonight!

This bread is so delicious! My first batch came out perfect, and my husband and I gobbled it up in two days! I made more while my husband's family was up and they at it all, grabbing it a slice at a time until both loaves were gone. My 3 year old nephew keeps asking if he can have some more bread! I made one batch with reduced sugar to make hamburger buns, but they came out a bit heavy.

Awesome Recipe! I found this years go on this site and have been using it ever since. It's a wonderful dense sweet white bread which tastes great on sandwiches or toast. It is very easy to flavor this bread. I've added fresh or dried herbs for herb bread, cinnamon and raisins for raisin bread, a banana for a yeast banana bread, and even half a can of pumpkin with apple pie spice for a yeast pumpkin bread. Experiment with it have fun!
