  • 3 1/2 teaspoon yeast, active dry

Instruction

  • In a stand mixer with a whisk or paddle attachment, combine hot water, oil & honey.

  • Add 3 cups flour, yeast, & salt. Mix thoroughly.
  • Change attachment to the bread hook (kneading) attachment. Add remaining flour and set to mix on medium-low speed for 10 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into two parts and place into greased loaf pans. Let rise on the counter (covered or uncovered) for 30 minutes.
