Homemade White Bread-6 Loaves

I am not one for a bread machine. I do not think you get a good loaf of bread out of them things no matter how many recipes you try. I have been making this bread for years now and my family loves it. Even though I know that wheat bread is better for you...we love this bread also and make it as healthy as possible. It is very soft and scrumptious! And it is sooo easy to make especially for a beginner. Freezes well too!

6 cups lukewarm water
4 T. yeast
1 cup sugar or sucanat
3 T. salt
1 cup oil (I use vegetable but you can use what your prefer)
5 lbs. unbleached bread flour (as unprocessed as possible)

In large mixing bowl, mix the water, yeast and sugar until yeast is dissolved then add remaining ingredients. Use enough flour to clean bowl sides. You do not have to do a lot of kneading, just enough to mix it thoroughly. Let rise for 1 hour in bowl. Punch down and knead slightly again. Moisten bread pans with oil or non stick spray. Shape dough into loaves and let rise in pans until desired size. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes depending on your stove.

This bread cost about 33 cents a loaf to make (which is now even cheaper than Aldi's) if you buy in bulk the flour, oil, and yeast.
