I'm walking you through, step by step, so you can make this delicious bread whether you're new to bread baking or you've been baking for years.
Someone commented that the dough seemed a little stiff and I'll (wo)man up to it - I added a bit too much flour when I was paying more attention to a problem with my camera than I was the flour going into the mixer... and the bread still was light and delicous! I'm telling you - this recipe is very forgiving.

Ingredients
1 cup water 110F
1 pinch powdered ginger optional - activates yeast
1 cup milk 110F
⅔ cup sugar (you can use less)
1 ½ tablespoons active dry yeast
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ cup vegetable oil, coconut oil works really well here (melt it first and let it cool to 100F)! OR use melted butter
5-½ cups bread flour you may need a little more or a little less
2 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
Dissolve the sugar in the warm water and milk in a large bowl.
Whisk in the yeast (and ginger if using).
Set aside for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the yeast mixture gets foamy.
Stir in 1 cup of the flour.
Whisk in the salt and oil.
With the mixer running add the remaining flour, one cup at a time, until the dough pulls away from the bowl.
Knead by machine about 5 minutes.
Hand kneading
If you are hand kneading mix in the flour until you have a sticky dough, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic - adding flour as needed.
Rising and shaping
Oil a large bowl and place the ball of dough in it.
Oil the top of the dough and then cover with a damp cloth.
Allow it to rise until it has doubled in bulk. This will take about an hour.
Punch the dough down.
Knead for three minutes or so and divide in half.
Let rest for five minutes.
Shape into loaves and then place in greased 9x5-inch loaf pans.
Brush the tops with the melted butter.
Let rise for 30 minutes, or until the dough has risen an inch or so above the pans.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes, or until loaves sound hollow when tapped.

Is the dough supposed to be that stiff?

[@myVillage2323]

Only the shadow knows 😂

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

It. might have been a little more stiff than usual. It's not a super soft dough but it's also tough to keep everything going when doing video by myself... :)
