********How do you make bread more moist?*****?

Question

When I make bread, it tastes ok and all, but I was just wondering how you make it a little more moist. Thanks.

Answer 1

1. add a little butter to your dough mixture, you will need to experiment to get just the right amount.
2. egg glaze the dough this will help prevent the bread from becoming so dry during the baking process
good luck and Good baking!

Answer 2

I have found if you make the bread recipe exactly like the recipe says, the bread is not very fluffy. Usually the recipe says to knead the dough for about 5 minutes and sometimes the dough needs to kneaded again. Do not knead as much. Also I have found adding some powdered milk really works, about 3-4 tbsp. You can also add two or three tbsp of yogurt, you will not taste it in the bread but it does make a difference. If you add one of the extras do not add more water. Also adding more oil can dry out the bread. Good luck and have fun!

Answer 3

Have you tried a potato bread recipe? It involves cooking and mashing unseasoned potatoes, which are incorporated in the dough to replace some of the flour. The result is more moisture retained in the baked bread. This can be helpful, especially if you are baking with whole-grain flours.
