No Fail Yeast Bread Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by Pattywak

Number Of Ingredients 10

Optional sweet rolls:
5 cups warm water
1/4 cup oil
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 cup honey or 3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons yeast
3 tablespoons dough enhancer, optional
11 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Cinnamon and sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • This recipe is easiest if a large mixer is used. If a mixer is unavailable, dough may be kneaded by hand. Combine water, oil, salt, sugar (or honey) and dough enhancer. Add yeast, mix. Stir in enough flour to make a soft dough. Cook's note: The recipe calls for about 11 cups, but I end up having to use about 2 to 3 more cups than this, otherwise it is too sticky. It depends on your altitude, humidity, etc. but just add flour until it is not sticking to your finger. Knead for 8 to 10 minutes in your mixer or by hand. Flour hands and remove from mixer. Divide into 4 parts. Shape each part into a loaf and place into greased loaf pans. Cover and allow to rise until dough is 1 inch above pan. Heat oven to 350°F. Bake for 30 minutes. Turn out of pans to cool. Cook's note: A nice variation is to make sweet rolls. Take 1 or 2 of the pieces of bread dough divided to make a loaf. Roll each portion of dough out into a 14 x 8-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Brush with 1 to 2 tablespoons softened butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Roll up dough. Cut into 1-inch slices and place on greased baking pan. Allow to rise until double in bulk. Bake as above.
