Amish Homemade White Bread
Ingredients
  • 2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 6 cups bread flour
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary ingredients and prepare them for use.
2
Combine sugar with warm water in a large mixing container, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved. Next, add yeast to the mixture and allow it to sit for 5 to 10 minutes, or until it has transformed into a light and airy foam.
3
Combine oil and salt in the bowl with the yeast mixture, stirring until well combined. Gradually add flour to the mixture one cup at a time.
4
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until it becomes smooth and pliable.
5
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, ensuring that it is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and allow the dough to rise, doubling in size over the course of about 1 hour.
6
Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles, then knead for a short period of time. Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into individual loaves.
7
Position the loaves in two well-oiled 9x5-inch loaf pans, making sure they are fully enclosed.
8
Allow the dough to rise again, this time until it has risen above the edges of the pans by about one inch, over a period of approximately 30 minutes.
9
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
10
Bake the risen loaves in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until they have achieved a golden brown color.\nEnjoy your freshly baked loaves
