Bread
| Yield: 3 Loaves
3 Cup white bread flour
1 Cup ww flour
2 Cup cool water
1 Tsp yeast
After dinner (approx. 9PM)
mix 3 c. white bread flour, 1 c. ww flour, 2 c. cool water, 1 t. yeast
in a large bowl and set aside (I put it on top of my cupboards)
After breakfast (approx. 9AM)
stir down sponge, put in KA (mixer), add 2 eggs, 3T soft (partly
melted) butter, 1/4 milk, 1/8-1/4 c. honey, 2t. salt begin
mixing......slowly add flour (if I am going to add oats or ww flour I
do it first......no more than 1c. ww and 1/2 c. oats), I add flour
until my mixer has had enough, then I turn it out onto a floured
surface and knead in more four until it is no longer sticky and feels
elastic. Form into a ball and put into clean large bowl, set aside.
After lunch (approx. 1-2PM)
punch down, knead well, form into loaves, put into greased (I use a
spray olive oil) bread pans. Set aside. Often at this point I will put
them in the oven with a pan of warm water and turn the oven to its
lowest setting for a few minutes....then turn off. I do this again in
an hour if they have not risen enough.....
About 4PM I bake at 350 for 45 min.
I get 3 loaves out of this, but one is a little small. I usually make
two of this recipe and pull some dough out of the second batch to make
3 full loaves.....I use the rest to make 2 loaves of caramel apple
pecan bread or cinnamon rolls. Yesterday I doubled it and just made 5
loaves of bread. |
