Yields:
2 Loaves
Ingredients
| 2 |
cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C) |
| ⅔ |
cup white sugar |
| 1½ |
tablespoons active dry yeast |
| 1½ |
teaspoons salt |
| ¼ |
cup vegetable oil |
| 6 |
cups bread flour |
Directions
1. In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water, and then stir in yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam.
2. Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Place in a well oiled bowl, and turn dough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down. Knead for a few minutes, and divide in half. Shape into loaves, and place into two well oiled 9×5 inch loaf pans. Allow to rise for 30 minutes, or until dough has risen 1 inch above pans.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.
