One year, my son asked me to bake this bread for his birthday rather than a cake, saying he liked it better! Nowadays, our grandchildren relish each slice.Audrey Thibodeau, Gilbert, Arizona Ingredients:
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast |
1 cup warm milk (110° to 115°) |
4 to 5 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
2 cups mashed winter squash |
1/4 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
2 teaspoons salt |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add 2 cups all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, squash, sugar, butter and salt; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough.
2. Turn out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Punch the dough down. Shape into two loaves and place in greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
4. Bake at 375° for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from pans to cool on a wire rack. Yield: 2 loaves.
