Homemade Quick and Easy Bread



Recipe

6.5 c unbleached flour
3 c lukewarm water
1.5Tbsp yeast
1.5Tbsp salt

Pour flour in a large bowl.
In another bowl, mix water, yeast and salt until there are no lumps.
Mix the water mixture into the flour bowl, make sure there are no lumps.

Cover with a towel or napkin and place in a cool, dry place to rise for 2 hours.  After the dough has risen, form 2 balls and sprinkle with flour.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees with a pizza stone in it.  Place a pan of water, about 1 inch deep, under the pizza stone for moisture.  Slice the top of the dough a couple of times with a knife, sprinkle the pizza stone with corn meal or flour, then place the two balls of dough on it and bake for 30 minutes.

Our Review

We loved this bread because it was so easy and because we love bread.  The second time we make it, we added flax seed in place of some of the flour and that was equally good.  Each time we make this, I plan to alternate different types of flour and adding herbs just to try different things.  We also made one "ball" into a loaf in a bread pan so that it could be sliced for sandwiches easier.
