French Bread
We cannot get enough of this bread!! Sometimes I even make it twice in 1 week. It is soft and just plain good. (Especially right out of the oven.) Goes great with soup!!
2 tablespoons yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup warm water
Mix together in a med. size bowl.
In a large bowl mix:
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups warm water
Add to flour mixture:
1/3 cup vegetable oil and the yeast mixture. Add 3 more cups of flour. Mix well. Let rise for 1 hour, stir down every 10 minutes. Divide dough in half. Shape into 2 loafs. Make slits on top of dough using scissors. Let rise for about 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 mins. When done brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, garlic seasonings, Italian seasonings etc...
