"My grandmother made coffee cakes all the time when I was growing up. It was probably one of the first yeast breads that I learned to make. A simple tasting sweet bread that is so good. Delicious with a cup of coffee, tea, or milk."

Step 1

Grease a large bowl with shortening set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, add the yeast, warm milk, melted butter, sugar,salt and egg. Mix on medium speed for about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the all-purpose flour; beat for 2 minutes more.

Step 4

Stir in bread flour and mix well. (You may need to add a little more flour if the batter is too sticky).

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead the dough for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Form the dough into a smooth ball and place it into the greased bowl, turning the dough over so that both sides are greased. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled; approximately 1 hour depending on the warmth of the area.
