Hawaiian Sweet Bread

Votes: 1

Time: 1 hour plus fermentation time

Despite its name, this Hawaiian bread has a slightly sweet flavor and goes perfectly with any dish. This soft and fluffy bread is best eaten the same day it's baked, but it also makes delicious French toast or bread pudding the next day. The dough is quite simple to make. Its basic ingredients are milk, flour, sugar, eggs, yeast, and butter. For a light, slightly spicy flavor, add lemon zest and a touch of nutmeg, which pairs beautifully with the buttery flavor of the bread.
