Homemade Twin Loaves
This is a Sue Fraunaffle recipe from Corona.
Ingredients:
- 1 packet dry yeast
- 2 1/4 c lukewarm water
- 3 T sugar
- 1 T salt
- 2 T shortening
- 6 to 7 cups flour
Directions:
Mix yeast and water together until yeast is disolved. Then add sugar, salt and shortening. Mix in the flour, a little at a time, until dough cleans sides of bowl. Turn onto lightly floured board and knead until dough is smooth. Place dough into a greased bowl and cover. Let rise until double in size (about 1 hour). Knead about 10 minutes and divide dough into two parts. Place each half into a loaf pan and let rise about 45 minutes. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from pans and brush with shortening.
