Final Knead: Remove the dough from the bag and knead it by hand on a lightly floured surface for 2–3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Rise and Bake: Place the dough into greased mini-loaf pans (as seen in your images). Let it rise in a warm spot for about 20–30 minutes, then bake at 190°C (375°F) for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.Flour
FAQ & Tips
Bag Strength: Use a heavy-duty freezer bag rather than a standard sandwich bag to ensure it doesn’t pop or tear during the “squishing” phase.
The Glossy Finish: For the shiny, professional look shown in the pans, brush the tops with a little extra melted butter or an egg wash just before baking.
Temperature Matters: If your milk is too cold, the bread will be dense; if it is too hot, the bread will not rise at all.
How to Serve
Freshly baked bread in a bag is a perfect side for hearty meals like Crockpot Orange Chicken or Slow Cooker Cabbage and Ground Beef. It also makes a wonderful base for a 4-Ingredient Tuna Melt. If you’re looking for a classic Southern pairing, use these mini loaves to soak up a rich 3-Ingredient Tomato Gravy.
