White Pan Bread

We had a really fun bread making night with some friends in my Relief Society. This was one that my friend Jill brought that was really tasty. It was a nice- kind of spongy- texture and a good flavor. I thought I would share the recipe Jill passed on. I'm sure sure how to convert all the grams- so good luck with that. :)
