RECIPE:
5 1/2 to 6 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 packets Fleischmann’s® RapidRise® Yeast 4 1/2 teaspoons
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter

Combine 2 cups flour, sugar, dry yeast and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and stir until blended. Combine water, milk and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH in 15-second increments until very warm but not hot to the touch (120° to 130°F. Butter won’t melt completely). I highly recommend using an instant-read thermometer. Add to flour mixture.
Beat 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in just enough remaining flour so that the dough will form into a ball.
Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic and springs back when lightly pressed with 2 fingers, about 6 to 8 minutes. Cover with a towel; let rest for 10 minutes.
Cut dough into 2 equal pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a 12 x 7-inch rectangle using a rolling pin.
Beginning at short end of each rectangle, roll up tightly. Pinch seams and ends to seal. Place, seam sides down, in two 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch loaf pans that have been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Cover with towel; let rise in warm place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
Bake in preheated 400ºF oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans by running a knife around the edges and invert onto wire rack.

  1. you make it look so easy, I have made bread only 1 time, and had a problem with the first rest time,, so I had wanted to ask, when you cover with towel and let it rest for 10 mins does the temp of the room make a difference and does the towel need to be damp, and one more question does spraying light coat of oil on dough help or not? thank you for any help, I will be viewing you other videos and looking forward to making rolls.

  2. How would I incorporate active dry yeast (that needs to proof BEFORE adding to dry ingredients)? Would I add the yeast to the milk/water/butter mixture, and THEN add it to the flour?

  3. I love your page! I now confidently now make bread! I spent my afternoon and evening baking your different kinds of bread and they were absolutely delicious! I am one of those people that shied away from yeast ….not anymore! Thank you!

  4. I made this yesterday and it was perfect 👌🏽. Never had success with bread until finding your recipe. Love how you explain certain parts ….🙏🙏🙏. I am keeping this in my trusty recipe book for my kid …..

  5. I made these breads today (added raisins to the cinnamon swirl loaf). So easy and tastes delicious!! Thank you for sharing this.

  6. looks very good and easy. in video you said 9X5 in pans , in written directions you have 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 inch so which is it please. Thank you
