Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 4 1/2 tsp instant yeast
  • 6 -6 1/2 cups freshly milled flour
  • 1 1/2 tbsp dough enhancer or 1 1/2 tbsp lecithin powder
  • 1 1/2 tbsp gluten

Directions:

  1. Combine water, milk, oil, honey and salt in a microwave safe bowl.
  2. Microwave on high for approximately 2 1/2 minutes. (Temp should be between 130 - 135°F) If you do not have a thermometer, it is easy to get it too hot. and it will kill your yeast. Microwaves can also vary greatly in how fast they heat. Adjust as necessary.
  3. In mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour, dough enhacer or lecithin, gluten and yeast; mix together.
  4. Add liquid ingredients and mix until well blended.
  5. Continue to mix adding the flour 1/2 cup at a time.
  6. When the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl enough flour has been added.
  7. Allow to knead 8-10 minutes, or until the dough forms a smooth ball .
  8. Form into 2 loaves.
  9. Place in greased loaf pans.
  10. Let rise until at least doubled in size (about an hour). Yes, that's right - I only let the dough rise once.
  11. Bake loaves at 350°F for 25-30 minutes.
  12. *Note: One package of yeast is about 2-1/2 teaspoons of yeast.
  13. *Note#2: Once, when I was rushed, I skipped the first rising time and just put the dough into my 2 loaf pans, let them rise and then baked. I couldn't tell any difference in the bread, so now I often do it this way.
  14. *Note #3: I also often substitute another cup of water for the cup of milk.
  15. *Note #4: I use a combination of the following: 1 cup soft white, 2 cups hard white, and 2 cups hard white BEFORE grinding.
