Ingredients
  

  • 200 g water
  • 60 g milk
  • 20 g sugar
  • 7 g dry active yeast
  • 400 g all purpose flour
  • 100 g sourdough starter active starter or discard is fine
  • 10 g salt
  • 28 g (2 tbsp) unsalted butter softened to room temperature

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, warm the water, milk, and sugar to 100-110℉. Do not overheat.
  • Stir in the yeast. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes until the yeast comes to the surface and appears frothy.
  • Add the flour, sourdough starter, and yeast mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. Mix on low for 5 minutes.
  • Add the butter and salt and continue to mix for another 5 minutes.
  • Cover the bowl and allow to rest until the dough appears doubled in size (about 45 min-1.5 hours depending on how warm your home is).

Shape the Dough

  • Line a 9x5 inch baking pan with parchment paper, then spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Trasnsfer the dough to a clean work surface. Gently pull the dough into a rectangle that is roughly double the length of the baking pan.
  • Fold the dough in half so it is now the width of the baking pan. Roll the dough into a log and place in the prepared baking pan. Cover and allow to rise until the dough comes 1 inch above the edge of the baking pan (about 45 min-1.5 hours).
  • When bread is nearly done rising, preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Bake bread in preheated oven for 33 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 30 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
