How to make saft bread

Here’s a simple homemade bread recipe you can try:

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour (or wheat flour for healthier bread)

1 cup warm water

2 tsp sugar

2 tsp dry yeast

2 tbsp oil or butter

1 tsp salt

Method

1. Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, add warm water, sugar, and yeast.

Stir gently and let it rest for 8–10 minutes until frothy.

2. Make the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, add flour and salt.

Pour in the activated yeast mixture and oil/butter.

Mix and knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

3. First Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours, until it doubles in size.

4. Shape the Bread

Punch down the dough to release air.

Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased loaf tin.

5. Second Rise

Cover and let it rise again for 30–40 minutes.

6. Bake

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).

Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown on top.

Tap the loaf; if it sounds hollow, the bread is done.

7. Cool & Serve

Let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
