Portuguese Sweet Bread Recipe
Instructions for Portuguese Sweet Bread Recipe
Combine the yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and water in a large bowl and allow to proof. Put the butter in the warm milk, add 1 cup sugar, and blend well. Add to the yeast mixture and stir to combine ingredients. Add three of the eggs, lightly beaten, and salt and mix well. Then add four cups of flour, one cup at a time, kneading with your hands in the bowl, to make a soft dough. Turn out on a floured board and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, using only enough additional flour to prevent sticking. This should take about 10 minutes. Shape into a ball and put in a buttered bowl, turning the dough to coat the surface with butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, drafty free place until double in bulk. Punch down the dough and divided into two equal pieces. Shape again into a ball and place in two 9 inch buttered skillets. Cover loosely and let rise again until doubled in bulk. Brush the tops with the remaining egg, well beaten, and bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes, or until the bread is rich, dark color, and sounds hollow when rapped on top and bottom. Cool on racks before slicing.
