Buttermilk Bread
Who knew buttermilk would turn basic white bread into something extraordinary?
Making bread at home is really not as scary and time-consuming as you might suspect. And once you’ve had homemade bread, very little compares. You’ll second guess yourself every time you’re reaching for a bag at the grocery store. Or I do anyway.
It's a few simple ingredients and what you get in return is outstanding.
In fact, making this bread is fun, it's tasty, it comes out really well, I was proud, and bonus, it knocked an item off my grocery list. I made it myself!

This recipe is super easy and hands-off-ish; you can get loads of other things accomplished while the bread is doing its thing.
It's a simple bread, fluffy and soft without being Wonder Bread-like. It has only a slight buttermilk tang, just enough oddly enough considering the quantity, a subtle whiff of honey sweetness, and it’s delicate, delicious. The crust is thin and subtle. It’s excellent lightly toasted, smeared with melty butter.
Plus it's gorgeous!
Doesn't that just make your stomach growl?

Is this supposed to have 1 taplespoon of yeast? That seems like alot to me.
Would it be possible to make this in a bread machine?
