Ingredients

• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 0.25 cups Warm water (110°F/43°C)
• 0.33 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cups Whole milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 3 large Eggs, beaten
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.33 cups Pineapple juice
• 1 teaspoons Salt
• 4.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoons Oil or melted butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until the yeast blooms and becomes foamy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, warm milk, melted butter, beaten eggs, vanilla extract, pineapple juice, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the bloomed yeast mixture to the wet ingredients and stir to incorporate.

Step 4

Gradually add in the all-purpose flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing between additions. If using a stand mixer, use the dough hook attachment and mix on low speed. Continue kneading until the dough is smooth, slightly sticky, and elastic, about 8–10 minutes.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free location until doubled in size, approximately 1.5–2 hours.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal portions or shape it into rolls, depending on your preference.

Step 7

Place the shaped dough into greased bread pans or a baking sheet lined with parchment. Cover again with a towel and let the dough rise for an additional 30–45 minutes, or until puffy.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If desired, brush the tops of the dough with a little melted butter for a shinier crust.

Step 9

Bake the bread for 20–25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pans for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Slice and serve as desired. This bread is perfect for sandwiches, French toast, or as a delightful side to any meal.
