  • Yield: 32 Servings
20 35 55

Ingredients

  • 5-1/2 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) plain yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon dill weed
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced chives
  • 1/4 teaspoon each dried oregano, thyme and basil

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine 2-1/2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt. In a small saucepan, heat water and yogurt to 120°-130°. Add to flour mixture; mix well. Stir in oil, herbs and enough of the remaining flour to form a stiff 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. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Shape each portion into a loaf. Place in two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to cool on wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves (32 slices).
