Portuguese Sweet Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
1/4 cup warm water (between 105F and 110F)
4 1/2 teaspoons (2 packages) active dry yeast https://amzn.to/2VMZHNk
1 cup granulated sugar https://amzn.to/2SiM865
1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter
2 eggs, plus 1 mixed with 1 teaspoon of water for the egg wash
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt https://amzn.to/2YcfWVx
4 cups bread flour https://amzn.to/3bNnrpQ
oil of your choice

Directions:
Add warm water and yeast to a small bowl and set aside.
To the bowl of a stand mixer add sugar and butter. Mix with the paddle attachment until well combined.
Then add 2 eggs and mix again. Next add milk and salt, again mixing until well combined. Then add yeast and water mixture to the wet ingredients.
Stop the mixer and add 1 cup of flour. Restart the mixer on low and continue to add 1 cup of flour at a time. Once all the flour has been added to the bowl stop the mixer and remove the paddle attachment scraping off excess dough. Replace with a dough hook.
Start the mixer on medium speed an knead until dough forms a smooth, elastic round ball. This takes about 5 minutes. The dough should be just slightly sticky to the touch. If too wet add more flour about 1/4 cup at a time. Being sure to mix well with each additions.
Stop the mixer and turn dough out on to a floured work surface and knead just until a ball is formed.
Lightly oil a large bowl and place the dough ball in the bowl being sure to coat the ball with oil as well. Cover bowl with a cloth and place in a warm area to rise for about 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size. The amount of time it takes to rise will vary depending on the temperature of the room. Warmer conditions will allow bread to rise faster. You can place the dough in the oven while it's off with the light on to create a warm environment.
Once dough has double in size punch down the dough to release the air bubbles and turn dough out on to a lightly floured work surface.
Form dough in to 14 dough balls by folding the edges of the dough in to the middle and pinching it together. Then place the seam side of the dough ball down on the work surface and roll the ball between your fingers to shape the ball.
Add 7 balls to a well greased pie tin. Cover with a cloth and allow to rise again for another 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in size.
Once the bread has almost completely risen, preheat the oven to 350F.
Once bread has risen add 1 egg and 1 teaspoon water to a small bowl and whisk together. Use this egg wash mixture to brush over the top of the bread. Be sure to do this lightly so the bread does not deflate.
Place the pan in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow bread to completely cool before slicing. ENJOY!
