In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and instant yeast. Stir gently until well combined and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour and salt.

Pour the yeast mixture into the flour mixture, followed by the melted butter. Mix until a dough begins to form.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Feel free to add a little flour if the dough is too sticky!

Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 30-45 minutes, or until it doubles in size.

Once risen, punch down the dough to release air. Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Again, cover with the towel and allow it to rise for another 30 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.

Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
