BREADS:

Amy's Wheat Bread
This is undoubtedly the best bread I have ever made!  Thank you Amy for sharing it. 

Makes 5 large loaves


Combine in mixer:
  • 6 c. hot water
  • 12 c. hard white wheat flour (we freshly milled our wheat)
Let sit 30-60 minuets.


Add and mix very well:
  • 1/2 c. oil
  • 1 c. honey
  • 2 T salt
Add in this order and mix a few minutes:
  • 2 c. flour
  • 1/3 c. vital wheat gluten (opt)
  • 2 T dough enhancer (opt) I have never used it and my bread it fantastic!
  • 3 T instant yeast (Saf Instant) WinCo
  • 2 T ground flax seed 
Add more flour as needed---judge by stickiness of dough---some should stick to your finger, but not a lot.


Turn on auto knead or to the knead setting on your machine. Knead for 8-10 minutes. While kneading, spray large bowl and lid with cooking spray (i.e. Pam).


When kneading is complete, place dough in large oiled bowl, turning once to coat with oil. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours. Alternatively, place in refrigerator overnight and proceed as follows in the morning.


Form dough into loaves and place in loaf pans coated with cooking spray; cover with cloth. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours, longer if dough has been refrigerated.


Preheat oven to 350*. If desired, slash tops of loaves with very sharp knife just before baking.


Bake for 30-45 minutes. Check bottom of loaf for nice medium brown color. Remove from pans and place on cooling racks. Enjoy!
