Ingredients:

• 240 ml (1 cup) warm milk
• 75 g (¼ cup) condensed milk
• 1 egg
• 30 g (2 tbsp) sugar
• 7 g (2 ¼ tsp) dry yeast
• 500 g (4 cups) bread flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 30 g (2 tbsp) unsalted butter, softened
• Additional butter for brushing (optional)

Instructions:

Step 1: Activate the Yeast

1. In a small bowl, combine the warm milk, condensed milk, and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Sprinkle the dry yeast over the milk mixture and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until the yeast is foamy and activated.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the activated yeast mixture and the egg. Mix them together.
2. Add the bread flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
3. Knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer for about 10-15 minutes, or until it’s smooth and elastic.
4. Incorporate the softened unsalted butter into the dough. Knead until the butter is fully integrated and the dough is smooth, shiny, and no longer sticky.

Step 3: First Rise

1. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
2. Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 4: Shape the Bread

1. After the first rise, gently punch down the dough to release excess air.
2. Divide the dough into equal portions for your desired bread shape. You can make rolls or place it in a bread loaf tin.

Step 5: Second Rise

1. Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet or in a loaf tin. Cover it with a kitchen towel and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until it’s puffy and nearly doubled in size.

Step 6: Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 7: Bake the Bread

1. If you’re making rolls, place them on a baking sheet. If you’re making a loaf, you can brush the top with some additional melted butter for a beautiful finish.
2. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes (for rolls) or 35-40 minutes (for a loaf), or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 8: Cool and Enjoy

1. Let the bread cool on a wire rack for a few minutes.
2. Slice, serve, and enjoy the sweetness and softness of your homemade Fluffy Condensed Milk Bread.

Notes:

• This bread is wonderful on its own but also great for making sandwiches or toast. You can even spread a bit more condensed milk on a warm slice for an extra treat.
• Store any leftover bread in an airtight container or resealable bag to keep it fresh.
