Quick & Delicious White Bread, by Pantry Secrets

This recipe is frickin amazing! From start to finish, it only takes one hour, and that includes rising, kneading and baking. I make this bread all the time, and use it for rolls, cinnamon rolls, bread bowls and pizza crust. Yum!

Ingredients

• 5 1/4 cups white flour
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 quarter-sized dollops of liquid lecithin
• 2 cups hot water
• 1 1/2 heaping tablespoons of yeast

In a large kitchen-aid type mixer with the dough hook, combine your flour, salt and lecithin with one cup of hot water.

In a small bowl, combine the other cup of hot water with the sugar and yeast. Let the yeast activate for a couple minutes.

Once the yeast is frothy, add the yeast combination to the flour combination and mix for one minute.

Your dough should have the consistency of Play-Doh. It it is too dry, add water, one teaspoon at a time. If too moist, add flour a teaspoon at a time.

Knead in your mixer for five minutes. When finished, take out the dough, and knead by hand for an additional minute. It should still have the consistency of firm Play-Doh.

Cut the dough in half and form two loaves. Place each loaf in a greased bread pan. Cover with a moist, warm kitchen towel and let rise for 25 minutes. (I get a towel wet, squeeze out the extra water and put it in the microwave for 2 minutes before placing over the pans. This helps the bread rise and stay moist.) Then bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

Enjoy!
