HOMEMADE BUTTERMILK BREAD RECIPE

Buttermilk Bread baked fresh in your kitchen with this easy recipe! Buttermilk Bread is soft and has incredible flavor. Simple bread recipe that everyone loves.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk*
  • 2 TBSP melted butter
  • 2 TBSP sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose or bread flour
  • 1 TBSP yeast

Instructions

  1. Combine buttermilk, butter, and sugar in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients, including yeast. Whisk dry ingredients together to combine, then add to buttermilk mixture in the mixing bowl. (I use a Kitchenaid Mixer.) Mix ingredients until well combined. I like about a quarter sized amount of dough to be sticking on the very bottom. If your dough looks a bit dry, add in another splash of buttermilk. Once you've achieved a good consistency, mix the dough on low for about 6-7 minutes. (Or knead by hand about 10 minutes.) Proper kneading is critical to great textured homemade bread!
  2. Once dough is done kneading, cover and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour; until dough has doubled in size.
  3. Punch dough down and knead several times. Shape dough (I like to roll mine, then tuck the ends under) and place in a greased bread loaf pan. Place dough back in the warm spot and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake dough for about 30-35 minutes- until top is golden brown. Let cool and slice.
You can substitute regular milk + lemon juice for buttermilk, but you won't quite get the full texture and flavor of this bread. So add buttermilk to the grocery list; you'll love it!
You can make this recipe in a bread machine! No changes needed either. Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order listed above. Before you add in the yeast, make a small well in the flour and place it there. I used the Basic White Bread setting with a light crust.

Kids will use their own footprints to make baby ducks. These are so cute! What You Need Washable yellow tempera paint Wash tubs Large construction paper Cornmeal Glue Instructions Each kid chooses a piece of construction paper for background. Kids take one shoe and sock off. Have kidss come up one at a time, to gently dip their foot in the yellow tempera paint. Help kid hop over to their paper (which is placed on the floor). Each will step on their paper, making a footprint. They can then step into the wash tub to clean their foot. The heel becomes the duck’s head. As paint is drying, kids may wish to sprinkle on glue to add cornmeal, so their chick has something to eat. Kids can decorate their footprint to look like a new spring duck.

Cool Ten-Minute D.I.Y Artwork

A quick...cool...fab looking D.I.Y for any room! We are on the edge of leaping into the renovating pit...well an awesome big extension I hope! And the house is being cleared of any *extra* stuff that apparently we can live without...hmmm!? Can I really live without *stuff*? This will be the making, or perhaps the undoing, of my Bower Bird ways. We'll see. So far I'm loving the empty walls. But I'm keeping one feature wall of *stuff* above the sofa's. {I can't do total  cold turkey  decorating...} You know empty walls reflect sooooooo much lovely light! Yeah so did I...but I've been choosing to ignore that! I'm loving that light! Anyway... As the sitting room and kitchen are starting to be stripped bare- I'm sorting all the bedrooms so the kids can spend more time in there, doing things they may have done at the dining table or kitchen bench- seeing as we'll be a few months without either. We spent a very wet Sydney weekend re-aranging rooms, and ...
