A bread recipe that feeds the flock. I make 4 large loaves at time that has saved us money and my family loves it.
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups luke warm water
3 pkgs. dry yeast
1 can evaporated milk
6 eggs
3 palms salt
3/4 cup sugar
2 sticks butter
5 lbs flour (i use part whole wheat flour)
Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl I put everything in together (minus the flour) and mix well with 1 - 2 cups of whole wheat flour. I then add the flour gradually until the correct texture where it can be kneaded. Pour out on floured board (counter) and knead for 10 minutes. Let rise for 2 hours (I warm my oven then put in the bread and turn off the oven for rising). After rising 2 hours, punch down and let rest 10 minutes.
2. Put into bread pans (6 regular sized loaves or 4 5lb loaf pans). Let rise again (1 - 2 hours).
3. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes.
