1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
2 cups warm water (110-115 degrees)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs, beaten
7 -8 cups bread flour
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast and warm water in a mixing bowl.
2. Add sugar, butter, salt, eggs and 4 cups of flour.
3. Beat until smooth.
4. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
5. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic (about 6-8 minutes).
6. Place in a greased bowl and turn once to grease top.
7. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
8. Punch down dough.
9. Turn on floured surface and divide into thirds.
10. Shape into loaves and place in three greased 9 X 5 X 3 loaf pans.
11. Cover and let rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
