This is a super easy bread recipe. You can use either Bread flour or All Purpose (AP) flour with similar results. I have not found one to better than the other.
2 cups warm water
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil
6 cups bread or AP flour
In a large bowl combine water, sugar and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Add salt and oil to yeast mixture and stir to combine.
Add flour 1 cup at a time until dough comes together.
Dump dough onto floured board and knead for 5 minutes, adding flour as needed to make a smooth dough.
Add 1 tablespoon of oil to your bowl and put your dough in the bowl, turning once to coat. Let dough sit, covered for 1 hour until doubled in size.
Punch dough down, turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead for 3 minutes.
Divide dough in half, shape into 2 loaves and place in greased bread pans. (I weigh my dough so my loaves are even)
Cover, let rise for 30 minutes. Uncover.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Bread will sound hollow when tapped. If desired, you can brush milk on the loaves before baking, for a more golden top.
Remove from pan. I would suggest running a knife along the inside of the pan to help loosen the loaf. Enjoy! Cause I know you will!
