Homemade Bread

This is my Mom's yummy family recipe for bread.
It is my all time favorite.
I have altered it so that I can feed it to Marix.
It makes 5 loaves of bread, so you can freeze some of them, or just cut the recipe in half.

Ingredients

-5 cups water
-1/2 cup sugar
-2 Tbsp yeast
*Mix these together and let rise until it doubles in size.

-2/3 cup canola oil
-1 Tbsp salt
-12 cups flour ( I like to use half Red Mill White flour, and half Red Mill White Wheat Flour)

*Add remaining ingredients to the yeast mixture.
The flour will need to be added one cup at a time. You know you have added enough flour when the dough leaves the sides of the mixer.

*Knead bread in a kitchenaid mixer for 8 minutes at speed 2.

*Let the dough raise in mixer for 45 minutes.

*Divide and shape dough into five equal portions and place into bread pans rubbed with canola oil (rub all sides and bottom so the bread will not stick.)

*Let the bread raise in the pans for 45 minutes or untill it rises two inches above the pans.

*Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes and the bread is golden brown.

Serve warm with Nucoa margerine.
