Lisa Crossley's Bread Recipe

By Lisa Crossley
(Can be slightly varied for rolls, French bread, pizza crust, croissants, etc.)

•        6 c. very warm water

•        2 Tbs. yeast

•        ½ c. sugar (or honey)

•        ½ c. oil (margarine or butter)

•        2 Tbs. salt

•        Flour:  Add flour until it is no longer sticky--when the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the mixing bowl. (Approx. 12-14 c.)  It doesn’t require multiple risings and punching, however, it does seem to turn out better when you beat  it up a little! Let rise and bake at 350 for 20-30 min.

•        For variety: ½ c. dry grains (ie.millet, quinoa) or 1 c. cooked grains (ie.oatmeal, 5-grain cereal) may be added for extra protein, texture, and flavor. May add herbs, grated vegetables, cinnamon and sugar, etc. For delicious herb bread: Blend up your favorite herbs: garlic, rosemary, basil, dehydrated onions and mix it in with the flour.
