Batter White Bread

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups sifted flour, warm water, shortening, sugar, salt, and yeast; beat by hand for 300 strokes or with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 3/4 cups sifted flour, scraping the bowl often, until the dough is smooth. Cover with a clean cloth and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

2. 2

   Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Gently punch the dough down; it will be sticky. Spoon it into the prepared loaf pan, patting it down and shaping it with floured hands. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

4. 4

   Uncover the dough and bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 45 minutes.

5. 5

   Remove from the oven and set on a cooling rack. Brush melted butter over the top and let cool.
