Make bakery-style soft and fluffy condensed milk bread at home. This easy recipe uses sweetened condensed milk for a tender crumb and rich, slightly sweet flavor, perfect for breakfast or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 105-115°F)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Combine the warm milk and sugar in a large bowl. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy. This proves the yeast is active.
  2. Whisk the sweetened condensed milk and egg into the yeast mixture until combined. Stir in the melted butter.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups of the flour and the salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 8 to 10 minutes, adding the remaining 1/2 cup of flour as needed, until the dough is smooth and elastic. It should be soft but not sticky.
  5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Gently punch down the risen dough. Shape it into a tight log and place it seam-side down into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  7. Cover the pan loosely and let the dough rise again in a warm spot for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the dough has crowned about 1 inch over the rim of the pan.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the last 15 minutes of the second rise.
  9. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
  10. Remove the bread from the pan immediately after baking and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Notes

  • For extra soft rolls instead of a loaf, divide the dough into 12 equal pieces after the first rise, shape into balls, and place them close together in a 9×13 inch baking dish before the second proof.
  • Brushing the top of the loaf with melted butter immediately after it comes out of the oven adds shine and keeps the crust tender.
  • This rich and tender bread is excellent toasted for breakfast sandwiches.
