Shaping Your Bread

Once your dough has doubled in size, it’s time to shape it into loaves. Divide the dough into two equal portions and roll each into a rectangle about 20 cm wide. Starting from the shortest side, roll the dough into cylinders to create your loaves. Place them in oiled molds, cover, and let them rise for another hour.

Second Rise and Preparing to Bake

As your loaves undergo their second rise, preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Once they’ve doubled in size again, brush the tops with melted butter for added flavor and a golden finish. This step is optional but highly recommended for that extra touch of indulgence.

The Aroma of Freshly Baked Bread

As your loaves bake in the oven, your kitchen will be filled with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread. There’s something truly magical about the scent of warm bread wafting through the air, signaling that a delicious treat is on the horizon.

Optional Butter Topping

For an extra indulgent touch, why not slather your freshly baked bread with a generous layer of butter? Not only does it add richness and flavor, but it also gives your bread a beautiful golden sheen that’s sure to impress.

Baking Your Bread

After 30 to 35 minutes in the oven, your bread should emerge golden brown and irresistibly fragrant. Remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before slicing into thick, pillowy slices. Whether enjoyed warm with a pat of butter or used to make your favorite sandwiches, this homemade bread is sure to delight your taste buds.
