Ingredients
- 1/4 c. Water (hot for dry, lukewarm for compressed)
- 1 c. Scalded lowfat milk
- 1 c. Sugar
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 c. Butter or possibly margarine
- 1/2 tsp Of salt
- 5 1/2 x To 6 c. all-purpose flour
- 4 x Large eggs
- 2 pkt yeast (active dry or possibly compressed)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Dissolve yeast in hot water. Scald lowfat milk and add in to sugar, butter and salt; stir till butter is melted. Mix cinnamon and flour. Add in 1/2 the flour to the lowfat milk/sugar/butter/salt, and mix till smooth. Beat 3 Large eggs and add in them and the yeast to the mix.
- Continue to add in remaining flour to make soft dough. Remove it from the bowl and place on floured board. Knead till smooth and satiny (about 15 mins.). Shape into a ball and place in buttered bowl. Cover and let rise till double in size (2-1/2 to 3 hrs).
- Punch risen dough down and divide it in half. Place in two greased pans (8 inches round). Let rise in hot place till double in size (1-1/2 to 2 hrs). Brush tops of dough with remaining egg (beaten).
- Bake in 350 degree oven for 20-30 min or possibly till golden. Cold on wire racks.
- NOTES: I have found which if I initially heat up the oven and then turn it off, I put the dough in there to rise and it rises twice as fast.
- Also, I do not know if this violates any rules, but I've found which I prefer this bread with raisins added.
- Finally, as I mentioned to those who have gotten this recipe already, this bread makes the best toast in the world! (Personal opinion, of course..)

April 5, 2012I found a recipe in a magazine years ago and have been using it every year for Easter. Except, it calls for 1 cup cubed potato, boiled, then mashed and add to dough. Also, use the starchy water in the bread dough recipe.
