Homemade Sandwich Bread
Yields 1 loaf
Ingredients
1 cup + 1 tablespoon warm water (110-115 degrees F)
2 tablespoons oil
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1 package (2 teaspoons) active dry yeastDirections
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large mixing bowl; stir.
2. Add yeast then flours, and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10-15 minutes. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover with a clean towel and let rise until doubled, about 40 minutes.
3. Punch dough down; knead for a few minutes until smooth and then form into a loaf. Place in greased loaf pan and cover. Let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. If loaf starts browning too soon, lightly lay a piece of foil on top of the loaf to prevent too much darkening.
5. Remove bread from oven and allow to rest in pan for five minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
