AMISH WHITE BREAD
This is my favorite home baked bread recipe. I got it from an Amish cookbook years ago and no other bread recipe I have tried beats it. It is a standard in our house with beef stew.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time I make it.
Brianna Vine
[email protected]I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The bread was dense and dry, and it didn't rise properly. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

[email protected]This Amish white bread recipe is amazing! The bread turned out so soft and fluffy, with a perfect golden crust. I've tried many white bread recipes before, but this one is by far the best. It's definitely going to be my go-to recipe from now on.
