Homemade Bread

• 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
• 2 cups warm water (105u0b0 to 115u0b0)
• 2/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 6 to 7 cups all-purpose flour

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Stir in milk, butter, sugar, salt and 4 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
2. Turn out onto a floured surface and 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.
3. Punch down and divide in half. Shape into two loaves and place in greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 min.
4. Preheat oven to 400u0b0. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown, covering with foil during last 5 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary.
