This is the bread recipe that I recently got from my mom. She's submitted it to the church cookbooks over the years and it's always well received. :) Prep time includes rising. Ingredients:
1/2 cup warm water |
2 tablespoons dry yeast |
3 cups hot water |
2/3 cup brown sugar or 2/3 cup honey |
4 teaspoons salt |
1/2 cup oil or 1/2 cup melted butter |
4 cups white flour |
4 cups whole wheat flour |
2 cups oatmeal |
Directions:
1. Soften yeast in warm water. 2. Combine hot water, brown sugar or honey, salt, and oil or melted butter; cool until lukewarm, then add softened yeast. 3. Pour into a large pan; add the flours and oatmeal, stirring well. 4. Turn out and knead lightly; dough will be sticky (add small mount of flour as needed to knead). 5. Let dough rise in warm place for 45 minutes to an hour; punch down. 6. Grease 2 large loaf pans well. 7. Divide and shape dough into two loaves and put into pans; let rise until light, about 30 to 45 minutes. 8. Bake at 375 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes; let cool on racks. |
