I wanted to make just one loaf of bread today so I went through my favorite recipes for bread and came up with the recipe below. It turned out great and thought I would share it. I used my bread machine to mix it up but then I just finished the kneading in a bowl but I am sure all the mixing can be done in the bread machine. I later made an adaptation of a Oatmeal Bread recipe that also turned out wonderfully good as one loaf. I will have to write it down first but will try and send it tomorrow. Shannon
White Bread 1 Loaf 1 cup water 2 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons Crisco 3/4 teaspoon salt Heat in microwave until hot. Stir until Crisco has melted. Stir in slowly: 1/4 cup milk Mix in another bowl 3 cups of flour and 2 teaspoons of quick rise yeast Pour liquid into flour yeast mixture and mix adding more flour, approximately 1 more cup to make soft not sticky dough. Rise until double in bulk, punch down. Put in loaf pan and let rise again until about 2 to 3 inches higher than the top of the bread pan. I baked it on second from bottom rack at 350 degrees for 22 minutes. Note: Can mix this in bread machine to save on mess but do not bake in machine. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
