This is a very basic white bread made with all-purpose flour. The kneading is done with a stand mixer so it's super easy.
Combine water and butter in pyrex cup and heat for 30 seconds in the microwave. You want it warm to touch, not hot, around 110 degrees or so.
In Kitchenaid mixing bowl add flour, dry milk, sugar, salt, and yeast. Mix with the dough hook then slowly add warm water and butter. Knead on low for about 10 minutes.
Remove dough hook and cover dough with clean cloth and place in warm area to rise for at least 30 minutes. It should double in size.
Prepare a loaf pan by spraying with Pam.
Punch down dough, then knead by hand for about 5 minutes. Shape into a thick rectangle slightly larger than the pan by flattening a little and stretching, then roll the long ends inside and tuck the short ends under. Place in bread pan seam side down. Cover with a cloth and leave to rise again about 30 to 45 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake bread for 40 to 45 minutes or until it tests 200 degrees with an instant-read thermometer. Brush with butter after removing from oven. Allow to cool before slicing.
If your dough is too sticky, add a little flour.
Slicing is easier with a long serrated bread knife.
