Bread Recipe

Several of you have asked for my bread recipe and here it is it is very easy we use it for our bread at our house so it is much cheaper

3 packages (1.4 oz) active dry yeast
2 cups warm water (110-115 degrees)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter melted
2 eggs beaten
71/2-8 1/4 cups bread flour

In a large mixing bowl dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the sugar, butter, salt, eggs,and 4 cups flour beat until smooth. Stir in remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in greased bowl turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 45 min.

Punch dough down, turn onto a heavily floured surface, divide into thirds. Shape each portion into a loaf, place in greased loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 min.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown remove from pans to wire racks and rub tops with butter.

Hope you try it let me know if you have any questions
