Sally Lunn Bread

Step 1

In a saucepan, heat milk, sugar, butter, and salt just until butter melts. Stir well and let cool to 100 to 110 degrees.

Step 2

Combine yeast and warm water in small bowl. Let sit 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add yeast mixture, butter mixture and eggs to a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until blended.

Step 4

With mixer on low, gradually add in flour. Mixture will be very sticky.

Step 5

Cover bowl and let dough rise for 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.

Step 6

Punch dough down and cover and let rise for 30 minutes.

Step 7

Transfer dough to a well-gresed Bundt pan. I like to spray it with baking spray with flour. Cover and let rise for 20 to 30 minutes.

Step 8

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from pan immediately. Serve with butter or jam.
