Kid-Friendly Homemade Bread for Sandwiches

Looking for homemade bread recipes that your kids will allow you to use in their lunches? This homemade bread for sandwiches will do the trick with most kids!

My middle child absolutely loves my homemade bread, so when he saw I made homemade bread for sandwiches just for his lunch, he was over the moon! If only I had cooled the bread OUT of the bread pan, I think it would have been a little bit better. But it was still good. He ate two pieces of this bread for breakfast and then took a sandwich to school with it.

I made this bread too late at night and was focused on making it correctly and forgot to worry about cooling it. So basically you want to remove it from the pan as soon as possible and allow the bread to cool on a rack. Otherwise the steam builds up and the edges become too crusty and rubbery. Not a great combination.

So, this bread was amazingly EASY to make! I couldn’t believe it. The two days before this, I had tried twice to make a different kind of bread and it just didn’t work. #breadfail

This homemade bread for sandwiches mixes up super easy and even without a KitchenAid Mixer this dough would be very pliable and easy to knead. Because of this, it rises very easily without a lot of fussing – just cover it with towels and be done. Don’t worry about being near something warm, as long as the room itself is not too cold.

You can easily make this bread while dinner is cooking and allow it to rise while putting the kids to bed and then bake it and have fresh bread for the next day before your head hits the pillow!
