1 1/2 c all-purpose flour |
2 t sugar |
1 packet yeast |

Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar until it blooms, about 10 minutes. 2. Meanwhile fix metal blade in food processor. 3. Place flours, sugar, and salt into the process chamber and pulse to mix. 4. While processor is running add yeast, butter, eggs one at a time, and just enough milk until dough comes together in a ball cleaning the sides of the bowl. 5. STOP. Let dough rest for 15 minutes for the flour to hydrolize. 6. Add water or flour in small portions if necessary for the dough ball to come together and clean the sides of the bowl. 7. Process for 45 seconds to 1 minute in pulses. 8. Flour your hands with just a pinch of flour and remove dough ball from processor. It should be smooth and slightly sticky. Round dough into a ball by turning it under. Place dough ball in a greased bowl turning to coat. 9. Punch down the dough, cover, and let it rise again until doubled in size. 10. Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface, top down, and push the dough down with your fingers. See Photo 11. Make the dough slightly oblong by lifting and stretching opposite ends of the dough. Then fold it back on itself in thirds. See Photo 12. Rotate the dough 90 degrees and roll out the dough to a rectangle, working from center to the ends. See Photo 13. Fold each end to the center, then fold the dough shut like closing a book. See Photo 14. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size in a warm place for about 45 minutes. See Photo 15. Pinch seams and ends to seal and roll dough into a log shape. 16.
