White Loaf bread

I simply heart this bread. It is extremely soft & fluffy! The dough itself is very white (since there are no egg yolk & butter used) & easy to knead. 

Ingredients:
250g bread flour

15g sugar
1 tsp salt
50g egg whites
4g dry yeast ('Angel brand')
140g non dairy whipping cream
20g shortening

Method:
1. Using the mixer hook, mix all ingredients (except shortening) together. Beat until a dough is formed.
2. Add in shortening & beat again until the dough is smooth. Proof for 1hr.
3. Punch out air from the dough.   
 
4. Roll out the dough into a large rectangle with the shorter end to be the same length as the length of the loaf pan. Starting with the shorter end, roll up the dough swiss roll style & place it into the loaf pan to proof for 1hr.
5. Bake in a preheated oven @ 170°C for 45mins.
