I had a day last week where I decided to bake bread and make strawberry freezer jam. I felt like such a 'Suzie Homemaker." I found this recipe on 'allrecipes.com' and decided to try it out. It's super easy and it tastes really good. I add whole wheat flour and reduced the sugar the second time I made it, it wasn't nearly as good as the stated recipe! The freezer jam turned out yummy too (just followed the pectin instructions.) I'm still aspiring to be a pro-baker baking department. I'm not there yet so I'm glad I can learn from all of you!

"This recipe will give you two loaves of plain, sweet white bread that are quick and easy to make."
Ingredients:
2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C) 2/3 cup white sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast | 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/4 cup vegetable oil 6 cups bread flour |
Directions:
| 1. | In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water, and then stir in yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam. |
| 2. | Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Place in a well oiled bowl, and turn dough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. |
| 3. | Punch dough down. Knead for a few minutes, and divide in half. Shape into loaves, and place into two well oiled 9x5 inch loaf pans. Allow to rise for 30 minutes, or until dough has risen 1 inch above pans. |
| 4. | Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes. -Ashlee |
