Easy Bread
Ruth Roberts

-----------------------Doubled recipe I use
3 C. warm water--------6 C.
2 Tbsp. yeast----------4 Tbsp.
2 Tbsp. oil------------1/2 C.
8-9 C. Flour-----------16+ C.
1/3 C. Sugar-----------1/2 C.
Scant 1 Tbsp. salt-----1 Tbsp.
2 Eggs-----------------2 Eggs

In Bosch, combine all ingredients and mix for 5-10 minutes. Add flour slowly allowing it to get mixed in well. Don't get the dough too stiff--keep it a bit sticky. It makes a lighter bread. Raise twice. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. (Doubled recipe makes 6-7 loaves)
