"...small, light loaves that have wonderful flavor and texture." - Nila Towler

Combine yeast, sugar and water in a large mixing bowl. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour, salt, milk and butter. Mix for 3 minutes on medium speed. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Punch dough down. Divide in half; shape into two loaves and place in greased 5 3/4 x 3 1/8 x 2 1/4" pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans; cool on wire racks. Brush tops with melted butter.

Note: This recipe looks like it would work beautifully in a bread machine on the dough cycle. You might want to watch it as it mixes to make sure a nice ball is forming and add more flour or liquids as needed. Be sure that melted butter has cooled! You could probably bake it in the bread machine as a single loaf too. - Debbie Carlson
