Ingredient

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 3/4 cup pineapple juice, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup water, room temperature
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Baking pan
  • Parchment paper
  • Pastry brush

Method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast.
  2. Add the melted butter, pineapple juice, water, and eggs. Mix on low speed for 1 minute, then increase the speed to medium and continue mixing for 5-7 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  4. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 15-16 equal pieces and shape them into balls.
  5. Place the dough balls into a greased baking pan, cover with a clean towel, and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Brush the risen dough balls with melted butter and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown on top and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  8. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve the bread warm or at room temperature.

Recipes FAQ

Can I use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour?

Yes, you can use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour. Bread flour will give the bread a slightly chewier texture.

Can I use a stand mixer instead of an electric mixer?

Can I freeze the dough?

Recipe Tips

  • Be sure to use room temperature ingredients for best results.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it's too dry, add a little more water or pineapple juice.
  • Brushing the risen dough balls with melted butter before baking will give them a golden brown crust.
