Honey White Loaves

From Best of Country Breads

When I was searching for a moist bread that wouldn't crumble when thinly sliced, a friend urged me to try her grandmother's age-old recipe. It slices perfectly.

INGREDIENTS

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast

2-1/2 cups warm water (110° to 115°)

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup honey

2 eggs

3 teaspoons salt

8 to 9 cups all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the butter, honey, eggs, salt and 4 cups flour. Beat on medium for 3 minutes. 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 1 hour.
    Punch dough down. Divide into thirds. Shape into loaves. Place in three greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
    Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Yield: 3 loaves (16 slices each).
