Bread Baking at My House In Pictures With Recipe

I actually managed to make bread today, among other things and even managed to take pictures while I made it. I used a recipe that Deanna at Handsnhearts posted for 1 hour yeast bread recipe. So here it goes.

A One-Hour Yeast Bread....recipe
One Hour Bread
yields 3 loaves...or a variety of pan rolls, cinnamon rolls, mini loaves, hamburger buns, etc.

3 cups warm water
4 Tbs yeast
1/4 cup honey

Let this sit for a few moments, then add in:

1/2 cup very soft butter, or melt it
2 eggs
1 cup dry milk powder (we use buttermilk powder here)
8 cups flour (go ahead and play with this...half white/half wheat, all wheat, etc.)

All of this works well in my large Kitchen Aid mixer. I just turn it on and let it go until it all looks like bread dough :o) Then I pull it off the hook and plop it on the counter and let it rest for a few minutes. I usually grab the butter and coat the bread pans at this point so they're ready.

Knead and coax into 3 portions, then have at it. I plop and roll and press and knead and punch and what-have-you to remove the bubbles in the dough. Shape and lay in pans of choice. Let rise just to pan edge and place in ready oven at 350 for about 30-35 minutes. Check the bread when you think it's done by turning out of pan and tapping the bottom of the loaf. It will sound hollow and not thick. I cool mine on my cookie racks, lying on their sides. I also butter their tops :o)

This makes 3 regular loaves, or 9-12 mini loaves...or 1 loaf and 2 9x13 pans of rolls...or a bunch of hamburger or hot dog buns...or cinnamon-raisin bread...yum!

Almost dough

Ready to be put into loave pans and made into rolls

Rolls, after rising, they aren't the prettiest things, but they sure are good

All done, with buttered tops

 

And lest you think my bread is inedible, lol, it wasn't, and it tasted heavenly with some peach preserves. Have a blessed day!

Ok now...those loaves look way better than mine! mine never quite brown as nicely on top when finished...well, they have before, but those loaves went out to the chickens before I thought to make my own bread crumbs :o)

I finally caught up here with the posts...did I know you knit and crochet? LOL...I don't remember! You have a great list of goodies in the works. Do share some pictures of them when you are finished. I never did learn to knit and I'd love to. I have a shawl pattern here I'd love to make up.

Easiest schooling for youngers and a new baby -- read, read, read. Work your CLE ideas with Nicholas (and Matthew is writing to him!!!) and cover your math and basic English, then gather plenty of books for fun stuff like science, young people's biographies for history, etc. Have plenty of stress-free baby cuddling and read-aloud times. It will blend well with the Old Fashioned Education/CM style and you won't feel so stressed with the new little one.

How far are you from where Dewey is working in Arkansas? Email me :o)

I am going to be baking bread, and your recipe will be very helpful to me! It looks so good right now, I want a piece! (Wanna share with some of your preserves? Did you make them yourself?)

I am always looking for new recipes to try. I am going to look at all your recipes and see if there is anymore I might want to try!

Love,
Rachel
Ps. when I make it, I will let you know how it went!

**Thanks so much! No, I did not make the peach preserves, I got them at the store. I haven't had much time for canning this year while we moved, but will hopefully get back to it soon. I can't wait to hear how your bread turned out!
Blessings, sara
