Best Delicious Homemade White Bread Recipes

DELICIOUS HOMEMADE BREAD BY HAND (WHITE OR WHEAT)

Steps:

• Mix yeast and warm water in a large bowl and let sit for 10 minutes. During this time you should see bubbles appear in the water (perfectly normal).
• Once yeast and water have sat for 10 minutes, add the oil, salt, sugar and 1 cup of flour. Mix with a hand mixer for 2 minutes. After the 2 minutes, stir in the rest of the flour and mix with a large spoon until you can no longer mix by spoon and continue by hand kneading as you go. Once you have all flour completely mixed in, you should have a texture that is NOT sticky and not dry (if it IS sticky add more flour and if it IS dry, add a LITTLE more water until desired consistency is reached). Roll into a dough ball.
• Place in an oiled boil (must be oiled and not sprayed) and flip one time. Cover with a damp towel and place in warm environment (NOT HOT). What I do is preheat the oven to 170 and then immediately turn off while I'm mixing the dough - this leaves the oven at the perfect temperature to rise. Let rise for 1 hour OR until doubled in size.
• Remove towel and dough and place dough ona lightly floured surface. Knead the dough and roll out into a large rectangle (you MAY need to lightly flour your rolling pin as well). You will now roll the rectangle back up along the short side (if you roll along the long side it will not fit in your bread pan). Pinch seams together on bottom and on ends and place seem side down into a sprayed full-size loaf pan. Place a damp towel over the loaf pan and put it back into the oven to rise a second time (again no heat on) for 30 minutes.
• Remove from oven at about 24 minutes and let it rise the last 6 minutes on the counter while you preheat your oven to 370 degrees F.
• Place uncovered loaf pan into the oven and bake for 30-32 minutes.
• Cool on wire rack and allow cooling time before cutting. Enjoy!

DELICIOUS HOMEMADE WHITE BREAD

Steps:

• Take a huge mixing bowl and add in your water, oil, salt and sugar. Mix well until all sugar and salt are melted. Then add 13 cups of the flour and sprinkle yeast on top. Mix with a wooden spoon until you no longer can and then start kneading by hand adding the last 2 cups of flour gradually. Knead well for about 5- 10 minutes until your dough is smooth and easy to knead. You might have to add a little more flour if your dough is still sticky after kneading for a bit.
• When the dough is thoroughly kneaded pour your 2 tbs's of oil into the bottom of your bowl and roll your big ball of kneaded dough around in it coating all sides well. Let dough rise till doubled in size then punch it down and knead it again just a bit to get the air bubbles out. Then divide it into 6 equal portions.
• Knead each ball of dough slightly and shape into loaf then place in buttered loaf pans. Then set each pan into your (turned OFF) oven for about 30 minutes, or until they rise nice and big and juicy looking:).
• Then take them out of your oven and preheat it to 350°F When your oven is fully heated up return your risen loaves into your hot oven and bake for about 15 minutes! It's as simple as that!
