Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (or bread flour for a chewier crumb)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast (or 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast; proof in milk)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk, warmed to ~110°F (or plant milk for dairy-free)
  • 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (or neutral oil for dairy-free)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon milk for brushing (or non-dairy milk for vegan adaptation)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast until evenly combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk warmed milk, sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a shaggy dough forms; turn onto a lightly floured surface.
  4. Knead the dough for 8–10 minutes until smooth, elastic, and slightly tacky; add flour only if very sticky.
  5. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until doubled.
  6. Punch the dough down to release air, shape into a loaf, and place in a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  7. Cover and let rise again for 30–45 minutes, until it reaches just above the pan rim; preheat oven to 350°F.
  8. Brush the top lightly with milk for a golden crust.
  9. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped; internal temperature should be about 190–200°F.
  10. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
