I wrecked the wecka! Mom's Swiss bread recipe

Apple butter project turned into apple butter + Swiss bread project. A standard Swiss meal for us growing up was potato soup--thick and pureed with celery salt on top and real swiss cheese on the bottom. My mom was born in the US but was 100% Swiss and didn't speak English until she went to that one room "Hocker School" house in 1st grade
I found this old recipe in my recipe file--really just a list of ingredients and a few words of instruction. Pretty sure mom forgot to put "1 egg" on the list of ingredients--that would make sense why there was 3/4 cup too much flour!
A few oddities: you make a sponge first of the milk, yeast, and flour and let it raise before adding the sugar, butter, and more flour.
The reason I normally bake bread in my bread machine and shy away from baking bread in the oven will be apparent at the end of this video! sigh. Bake and learn. Bake and learn. No "Instagram" cheating photos here--I'll show you the truth, and the whole truth. And next time, I'll use my thermometer and check that the bread is 185F before removing it from the oven!

**So one brother says that it IS mom's handwriting "Why would mom have a recipe in Bonnie's handwriting." My other brother doesn't check my channel so we're good here! :)
