Easy Homemade Bread

This bread is good and easy. You don't need a mixer just a big mixing bowl and wooden spoon.

Ingredients:

1/2 c warm water
2 tbl yeast
1/2 tsp sugar

Mix and set aside for 5 mins (until yeast is dissolved)

2 c hot water
3 tbl sugar
1 tbl salt
1/3 c veg oil
6 c flour

Combine remaining ingredients, yeast mixture and 3 cups of flour. Mix well.
Add remaining flour and mix. Leave the wooden spoon in the dough and let rest for 10 mins. Mix dough five times every 10 mins. Divide into two parts, roll out and then roll up like a jelly roll. Place on a greased baking sheet, cover with greased saran wrap and let rise until double in size.

Bake at 400 for 30 mins.

I was told you can also use this dough for almost anything such as dinner rolls, deli rolls for french dips, scones etc. You can probably use a loaf pan to make sandwich bread but I don't have a loaf pan so I haven't tried it this way. Just make sure you adjust the cooking time!
