Homemade Wonderful Bread
GAIL'S VERSION:
INGREDIENTS (in the order I put them in the machine in)
- 1-1/2 cup room temperature water*
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter (room temperature)
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup dry potato flakes
- 1/4 cup dry milk powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast (at room temperature)
DIRECTIONS.
- Add ingredients in the order suggested by your manufacturer, including the yeast mixture. Select the basic and light crust setting.
Want to make this a mix of wheat and white? Substitute 2 cups wheat flour for 2 of the 4 cups of flour. Just be sure to add 2 Tbs. of Vital Wheat Gluten to help the dough rise properly (1 Tbs per cup of wheat)
NOTE: * - original recipe said 1-1/4, but some reviewers found it necessary to add another 1/4 cup of water.
