In Amish homes, pretty much everything is made from scratch – including the bread. This easy Amish white bread recipe is simple to prepare and makes the most incredible sandwiches. If you've been thinking about trying your hand at baking bread, this traditional Amish recipe for white bread is a good place to start.
The Amish white bread is made with water, sugar, yeast, salt, vegetable oil and bread flour. The bread dough rises for a total of 1 1/2 hours, so plan accordingly if you're having a homemade bread craving. The dough is cut in half and put into two loaf pans (yes, you get two loaves of fresh, hot bread!) and baked for about 30 minutes or until golden.
What's the difference between bread flour and all-purpose flour? In one word: protein. Bread flour has more protein than all-purpose flour. More protein means more stability, form and rise in your dough, allowing it to rise higher and hold its shape better.
Enjoy the simple goodness of this homemade white bread.

Here's how to make it:
