This is such an easy recipe and I have failed miserably in the past with bread...The nice thing too about this recipe is that it only makes 2 loaves...cuz there's nothing like warm bread for dinner! It's a crime to eat homemade bread not straight from the oven...
White Bread:
4 1/2 tsp. yeast (2 packages)
2 1/2 cups warm water, 110* degrees
3 Tbsp. sugar
3 Tbsp. melted butter
1 Tbsp. salt
6-6 1/2 cups flour
Dissolve yeast in kitchenaid mixer with sugar and water...rest for about 10 minutes. Add butter, salt and 2 cups of flour. Add rest of flour 1/2 cup at a time. Turn into an oiled bowl and cover with a damp towel, rest for about 1 hour. Turn out onto floured surface and shape into 2 loaves and place in greased pans, rest for about 1 hour. In the meantime, preheat oven to 425* degrees. When the dough is ready to bake, decrease oven to 375* degrees and bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool ever so slightly and enjoy...best bread you will ever eat!
I have also made this into breadsticks and rolls and they are to DIE for! Decrease cooking time accordingly.
