Everyone likes the tender texture and slightly sweet taste of this homemade bread. When I'm in the mood to bake, I usually double the recipe and share loaves with friends. The dough also makes lovely rolls. -Launa Shoemaker, Midland City, Alabama

48 Servings
Prep: 25 min. + rising Bake: 25 min.

Ingredients

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
2 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs, beaten
7 to 8 cups bread flour

Directions

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the sugar, butter, salt, eggs and 4 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface. Divide into thirds. Shape into loaves and place in three greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Yield: 3 loaves.
