SALLY LUNN BATTER BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Place the dry yeast in a large mixing bowl and mix with the warm water. Add the warm milk, butter, sugar, salt, eggs and 3 cups of the flour; beat until smooth (I used my stand mixer for this). TIP: When working with yeast outside my bread machine, I always first heat my oven to its lowest setting, turn it off and allow it to sit with the door shut, until time for the product to rise.
• 2. Stir in enough flour to make a soft dough (I used 2 1/2 cups more for a total of 5 1/2 cups, but you may use up to 6 cups total); DO NOT knead the dough. Cover the bowl and let rise in a warm place, until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• 3. While dough is rising, prepare a 10-inch tube or bundt pan with grease and flour. After bread has risen, spoon into the prepared pan, smooth and distribute evenly in the pan. Cover the pan and let rise a second time, until doubled in size, about another 1 hour.

• Add flour to the egg mixturein three additions with the butter, starting and ending with the flour. Add herbs if desired.
• Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place about 2 hours.
• Punch down dough with a wooden spoon.I use a large muffin scoop, and place in 18 lightly greased muffincups.
• Spray a piece of plastic wrap with pan and place sprayed side down over rolls.

SALLY LUNN BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Grease 2 Bundt pans o two 7-cup tube molds with butter (I used two loaf pans and I used butter-flavored Crisco)
• 2. In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk together the yeast and warm water. Let stand about 10 minutes or until foamy.
• 3. Fit the mixer with the dough hook and beat in the sugar, butter, milk, eggs, and salt. Mix in the flour, 1 cup at a time, to make a soft dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic, adding only enough flour to prevent sticking. (I had to use almost 7 1/2 cups of flour--It was a cool day and I know that sometimes has something to do with it.)
• 4. Transfer the dough to a large bowl coated with vegetable oil and turn the dough to coat all surfaces. Cover with a slightly damp towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until doubled in size. (Trick I learned: Use a bath towel with an electric heating pad on the towel, place your bowl of dough on the heating pad. Cover the top of the bowl lightly with plastic film, wet and wring out a tea towel with hot water, wrap the top with the other side of the bath towel, turn on low to rise)
• 5. STIR the batter to deflate. Divide the dough between the prepared pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 40-45 minutes, until almost doubled in size. (It is a sticky-kind of dough so don't bother trying to roll it out just divide it between the two pans.)
• 6. Preheat the the oven to 400 degrees F.
• 7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
• 8. Remove the bread from the pans. Serve warm or cooled and toasted.
• 9. CHANTILLY CREAM: 2 cups heavy cream 1/2 cup sifted confectioners'sugar In a clean, dry bowl of an electric mixer on high speed, whip together the creama nd sugar until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to serve. The cream will keep for 2-3 days covered but you will need to rewhip it before serving.
• 10. Note: The author recommended serving this with Chantilly Cream so I included his recipe. I'm not a huge fan of sweets so I skipped the Chantilly Cream and opted for butter! My mom say's this makes excellent French Toast but that you must use thick slices.
