This English Muffin bread I found over at One Good Thing by Jillee is delicious, easy to make and frugal. It makes the most wonderful toast and my family actually prefers this over regular English Muffins. You just can’t beat homemade bread and there is nothing like waking up to the smell of the bread toasting that brings everyone to the breakfast table quickly. At our house, we love to spread butter and homemade strawberry jam on our warm toast. Paired with a glass of milk or a cup of coffee, it makes a great breakfast. This recipe makes 2 loaves of bread, so you can enjoy one in the morning and store the other one in the freezer for a different day. This toast makes excellent breakfast sandwiches too. What do you like on your toast?
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups warm water
- 3 1/2 tsp. yeast
- 1 Tbsp. salt
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
- 5 1/2 cups flour
Instructions
- With your Kitchen Aid Mixer mix the ingredients with your dough hook until it becomes a ball and no dough is left on the sides of the bowl. (about 4-5 minutes)
- The dough will be VERY, VERY sticky.
- Divide the dough into 2 well greased larger sized loaf pans with a wooden spoon and lightly even out the dough in the pan.
- If you are going to touch the dough, you need to have floured hands.
- Cover the loaf pans with a towel and let dough rise in the pans in a warm spot (on top of the oven while it is preheating is great) until dough reaches about to the top of the pans-about 30- 45 minutes.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Brush with melted butter and let cool.
- Slice and toast.
- * If freezing, let cool completely and store in a plastic freezer bag.
- You may also slice this before freezing, if you think you might like to take one piece out at a time.
