Easy White Loaf by Miele

A great everyday loaf

Miele’s own recipe

SERVES: 6-8

COOKING TIME: 30 minutes (1hr 30mins prep)

DIFFICULTY: Simple

 

Ingredients

  • 500g bread flour

  • 5g salt

  • 7g dry instant yeast

  • 350g lukewarm water

  • 10g olive oil

 

Method

  1. Combine flour, salt and yeast in a bowl of a freestanding mixer with a dough hook attachment.

  2. Add the water and oil and mix on a low speed until smooth, elastic and glossy; approximately 3 minutes. Tip dough into a bowl which has been lightly coated with cooking oil. Cover with cling wrap.

  3. Allow to prove in the Oven on Conventional at 40°C for 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

  4. Turn-out the dough onto a floured work bench and gently shape into a loaf. Place onto a lightly floured baking tray. Dust the top of the loaf liberally with flour and score with a sharp knife to form a criss-cross pattern.

  5. Return loaf into the Oven on Conventional at 40°C for 15-20 minutes to prove.

  6. Remove the proved loaf from the Oven and change function. Select: Moisture Plus at 190°C with 2 manual bursts of steam.

  7. Place the bread into the pre-heated Oven, shelf position 2 and release 1 burst of steam immediately. Release the second burst after 15 minutes. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the loaf makes a hollow sound when tapped on the underside.

  8. Remove from Oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
