Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 1 cup Warm milk
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 4 cups Bread flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 1 unit Egg (for egg wash, optional)
• 1 tablespoon Water (for egg wash, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Add warm water, warm milk, butter, salt, and sugar to the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

Step 2

Add the bread flour, then sprinkle the active dry yeast on top of the flour.

Step 3

Set the bread machine to the dough cycle and let it run its course.

Step 4

Once the dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape each into a round ball.

Step 6

Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space between them to rise.

Step 7

Cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for 30-45 minutes, or until they double in size.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 9

Optional: Prepare an egg wash by whisking together the egg and water. Brush the tops of the risen dough balls with the egg wash for a glossy finish.

Step 10

Bake the bread bowls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 11

Let the bread bowls cool on a wire rack for about 20 minutes before cutting into them.

Step 12

To use the bread bowls, slice off the top of each loaf and carefully hollow out the inside, leaving a sturdy wall to hold your soup or filling.
