Recently I've been in the bread making mood......my sister had me try this KITCHEN KNEADS adapted recipe instead of my usual (DAD's Amazing WWB) and I really like this recipe because of two things. One the taste of honey is stronger & makes it almost like a treat when coming out of the oven and two the texture is perfect. However MY DADS recipe has less honey and oil so it's a bit healthier but this recipe is DELICIOUS!
Ingredients:
Makes two loaves
Instructions
Mix first three ingredients in mixer with dough hook. Add water all at once and mix 1 minute; cover and let rest 10 minutes.
Add salt, oil, honey (or sugar), and dough enhancer and knead for 1 minute. Add last flour, 1 cup at a time, kneading between each cup. Knead for about 6-8 minutes until dough pulls away from sides of the bowl. This makes a very soft dough.
Preheat oven for 1 minute to lukewarm and turn off. With oiled hands, turn dough onto oiled counter top. Divide into two 1 1/2 lb portions. (There will be about 3/4 lb left. Make mini loaves or a few rolls with it.) Shape into loaves, and place in oiled bread pans.
Let rise in warm oven for 10-15 minutes until dough reaches top of pans. Do not remove bread from oven; turn oven to 350 F and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool on racks.
