Grandma's Homemade Bread
Print Friendly and PDF
3 cups lukewarm water
1/4 cup sugar
2 packets of yeast
1/3 cup cooking oil
1 tbsp salt
7-8 cups all purpose flour

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with sugar. Allow it to bloom for 10 minutes, then add the oil, salt and flour, 2 cups at a time.

When dough is desired consistency, knead it until the dough is smooth, and forms a slightly sticky ball, adding a little flour as needed.

Cover the bowl of dough with a dish towel and allow it to double. This should take about an hour.

After it has risen, punch the dough down. Divide it into 2 separate balls and form into 2 loaves. 

Place the dough into 2 prepared 9x5 loaf pans and allow to rise once again (covered with a dish towel) until the dough is slightly above the pan -- this took about 1 hour for me.

Bake at 375 for 25-35 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool on a rack.
