Ingredients
1 cup milk
1 pkg yeast
1 TBSP sugar
½ tsp salt
2 TBSP butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
2 cups all purpose flour
Directions
Warm milk (about 105 deg) and stir in yeast, sugar and salt. Allow stand about 5 minutes or until it starts to bubble. Stir in butter, egg and flour until smooth. Turn into a well greased 8 or 9 inch cake pan or skillet. Allow to rise until double in bulk (about 30 minutes). Bake at 350 deg for about 30 minutes or until brown. Serve hot with butter.
This can also be made as a nice whole wheat bread by using one cup of all purpose flour and one cup of whole wheat flour. Use honey instead of sugar.
