Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine water, yeast, and sugar; let it sit until frothy.
- Add eggs, evaporated milk, and melted butter to the yeast mixture.
- Gradually mix in flour until the dough reaches a soft, non-sticky consistency.
- Knead the dough until smooth and elastic.
- Form the dough into a loaf or rolls, place in a greased pan.
- Let the dough rise until doubled in size.
- Bake at 350°F until lightly browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra flavor boost, consider adding herbs or spices like garlic powder or rosemary to the dough. If you don't have evaporated milk, regular milk can be used, but the texture may vary slightly. Make sure to let the yeast mixture sit until it's frothy, as this ensures the yeast is active. You can also try shaping the dough into rolls for easier serving, which pairs beautifully with Elizabeth Mingo'S Corn Light Bread.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these delicious bread or rolls warm with butter, jam, or honey for a delightful breakfast treat. They also make a great addition to any meal as a side, especially with soups and stews. For a unique twist, consider pairing them with Nana'S Hot Cocoa for a comforting dessert experience.

Once cooled, store leftover bread or rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use instant yeast instead of active dry yeast?
Yes, you can substitute instant yeast for active dry yeast in this recipe. Use the same amount, and there's no need to proof it in water. Just mix it directly with the dry ingredients for a quicker preparation.
What should I do if my dough isn't rising?
If your dough isn't rising, it may be due to inactive yeast. Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking the expiration date. Additionally, make sure your environment is warm enough for the dough to rise; a draft-free spot or slightly warmed oven works well.
Can I add mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts?
Absolutely! Adding mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts can enhance the flavor and texture of your bread or rolls. Just fold them into the dough after kneading, and adjust the flour if necessary to maintain the right consistency.
