This is an awesome and easy bread recipe – it does use yeast, but fear not, you CAN do this!!!
2 C warm water (110 degrees F)
1/2 c sugar
1 1/2 Tb active dry yeast (this is NOT a full packet)
Dissolve sugar and water in a large bowl, add yeast to “Proof” and let it sit until you have a creamy foam on top.
ADD
1 1/2 tsp salt (I use Kosher)
1/4 C vegetable oil (I use canola or peanut)
then mix in
6 C flour – 1 cup at a time
knead until smooth.
Put dough into a well oiled smaller bowl (metal or glass if you have it) turn the dough over so it has oil on both sides.
Put someplace warm, cover with a clean wet cloth and let it be for about 1 hour.
Punch down (yes, punch it) and divide it in half, shape them into loaves and put it 2 greases loaf pans. Let raise again for about 30 minutes,
Cook for 30 minutes at 350….
turn out of loaf pans onto a cooling rack.
Easy breezy and super yummo
