Favorite Cornmeal Yeast Bread
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + rising Bake: 35 min.
YIELD: 2 loaves (16 slices each).
This bread goes very well with chili or any kind of soup. I think it makes a great combination on a cold winter day.
Ingredients
-
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
-
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
-
3/4 cup 2% milk
-
1/3 cup sugar
-
1/3 cup butter, melted
-
1 egg
-
3/4 cup cornmeal
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
3-1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
-
1.
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, sugar, butter, egg, cornmeal, salt and 1-1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
-
2.
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.
-
3.
Punch dough down. Divide in half and shape into two loaves. Place in greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
-
4.
Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to cool on wire racks.
