Ingredients
- 2 cps warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
- 2/3 cp white sugar
- 1 1/2 tbs active dry yeast
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cp vegetable oil
- 6 cps bread flour
Directions
-
In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water, and then stir in yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.
