White Sandwich bread
I got this recipe from a friend and it is VERY good bread.
White Sandwich bread
1 cup warm water (I used hot tap water)
2 Tbl. sugar
2-1/2 teaspoons yeast (rapid rise)
1/4 cup oil (canola oil)
3 cups bread flour
1-1/2 teaspoon salt
In a 2-cup measuring cup, measure the warm water (1 cup), stir in yeast and sugar. Let it set for 10 minutes. It will start bubbling and will be quite frothy on top at the end of the 10 minute period. Add the oil and then dump the liquid in the bread machine bread pan.
Next, add your flour and top with the salt. (My bread machine instructions usually had the liquid and dry ingredients in a different order, but I followed this recipe and it worked out great.)
Set the bread machine to the "dough" setting.
At the end of the dough cycle, dump the dough on a lightly floured surface, knead just a couple of times and form into a loaf. Spray a loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray and put loaf inside.
Let rise about 1 hour or until it rises up out of the loaf pan by about an inch. I put my dough in the microwave to rise, no drafts to worry about in there. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake loaf for about 25 minutes or until golden borwn. Let sit in the pan for five minutes, then remove from pan and let it cool on a cooling rack.
