Equipment
- electric pressure cooker
- bread pan
- trivet
Ingredients
- all purpose flour
- yeast
- sugar
- warm water
- salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add warm water while stirring, until a sticky dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Shape the dough into a ball.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
- Preheat your electric pressure cooker by selecting the baking or cake setting. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for specific preheating guidelines.
- Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles. Transfer the dough to a greased bread pan and shape it to fit the pan evenly. Place the bread pan on a trivet or in a heat-resistant dish that fits inside your pressure cooker.
- Carefully place the trivet or dish with the bread pan into the preheated pressure cooker. Close the lid and set the cooking time according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically 30-40 minutes. The bread is done when it turns golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- After the baking time is complete, carefully release the pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions. Open the pressure cooker and use oven mitts to remove the bread pan. Let the bread cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the bread has cooled, slice it
