Homemade Bread Recipe

In a stand mixer add the warm water, sugar, salt, and yeast.

Let the yeast proof until it bubbles for about 5 minutes.

Using the dough hook, start adding the flour 1 cup at a time until the dough combines and forms a soft dough.

On a floured surface knead the dough until smooth and elastic and form a ball.

Add the oil to the large bowl and add the dough to the bowl and cover.

Let rise for 1 to 1½ hours until it has doubled.

Grease and flour 2 9×5-inch pans.

Punch the dough to release the air. Lay the dough onto a flat surface and cut into 2 loaves.

Roll each loaf up and place it into the loaf pans.

Let it rise until it doubles for another 1 to 1½ hours.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown on the tops.

Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
