this Fluffy Condensed Milk Bread is perfect for breakfast, tea time, or as a side to your favorite meal. The addition of condensed milk gives it a rich, milky sweetness while keeping the bread irresistibly moist.

Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 3 cups (375g) bread flour
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
  • ½ cup (120ml) warm milk (about 110°F/45°C)
  • ⅓ cup (100g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ teaspoon salt

For the Egg Wash:

  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon milk

For the Glaze (Optional):

  • 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter

  • Instructions

    1. Activate the Yeast

      • In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

    2. Prepare the Dough

      • In a large mixing bowl, combine bread flour, condensed milk, egg, butter, and salt.
      • Add the activated yeast mixture and mix until a shaggy dough forms.

    3. Knead the Dough

      • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-12 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 8-10 minutes.

    4. First Rise

      • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours or until doubled in size.

    5. Shape the Bread

      • Punch down the dough and divide it into 3-4 equal portions. Roll each into a ball or log, then arrange them in a greased loaf pan (or shape as desired).

    6. Second Rise

      • Cover and let the dough rise again for about 30-45 minutes until puffy.

    7. Bake

      • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
      • Brush the dough with the egg wash and bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

    8. Glaze (Optional but Recommended!)

      • Mix condensed milk and melted butter, then brush it over the warm bread for extra shine and flavor.

    9. Cool & Enjoy

      • Let the bread cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
