Milk-and-Honey White Bread

Directions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in milk. Add honey, butter, salt and 5 cups flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour, in 1/2-cup increments, to form a soft dough.
2. Turn onto a floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, 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.
3. Punch dough down and shape into 2 loaves. Place in 2 greased 9x5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Bake at 375° until golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Cover loosely with foil if tops brown too quickly. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
