  • 3 tablespoon/ 40g Sugar

  • ½ tablespoon Lemon Zest

  • ½ cup / 103g Milk Heated to lukewarm
  • 3 tablespoon/37g unsalted butter
  • 2 ½ tablespoon water

Instructions

  • ·          Whisk the dry ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the milk, butter, orange juice and water.
  • ·         Mix until the ingredients come together, and then knead until it forms dough. Continue to knead and medium/high speed until the dough becomes smooth and elastic and no longer sticky. To test the dough, pull it until it forms sort of a thin membrane.  This could take up to 18 minutes.
  • ·         Place the dough into an oiled bowl or dough rising bucket, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise until doubled.   First rise took 2 hours.
  • ·         Once the dough is risen well, transfer to kneading board, deflate Take each piece and, using a rolling pin, roll out into a long oval shape. Fold the shorter sides of each oval over like an envelope, into sort of a square. Flip the squares over, and roll out into an oval again. Flip them back over, and roll into a roll/cylinder
  • ·         .Arrange the dough  in an oiled one-pound bread pan, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rise to about ¾ of the height of the bread pan. It took about 1 hour.
  • ·         Brush the loaf with the egg wash and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 60 minutes. If the top gets too brown, tent the loaf with foil while baking.
  • ·         Remove the loaf from the pan and cool on a wire rack. Let it cool completely
  • ·         Enjoy this bread makes a great toast.
