I just have to pass along this recipe for bread that I received via my friend Jessie's friend Hannah. Whether you like hearty sandwich bread or hamburger buns, you'll be finished in about an hour, really. It's nothing short of a...miracle.
Miracle Bread
10 1/2 c. white bread flour
1/2 c. sugar
1 T. salt
3 rounded tablespoons instant yeast
3 T. liquid lecithin (I didn't have lecithin, so I used 1/3 c. oil)
4 c. hot tap water
Mix dry ingredients. Add lecithin (or oil) and water. Mix for 1 minute and check consistency. If dough is too dry, add a little more water. Dough should be very sticky. Mix for 5 minutes. (Do not add flour to the dough after it has finished mixing.) Spray counter and pans with Pam. Shape loaves, place in pans and cover with a dish towel. Let rise 25 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
Makes 4 loaves.
For whole wheat bread (which I actually prefer in taste to the white, especially if you use King Arthur's White Whole Wheat Flour), use the same recipe only with whole wheat flour; replace one cup of the hot water with warm applesauce, and add 1 additional tablespoon lecithin. Mix for ten minutes.
**Note: if you are making this in a KitchenAid, halve the recipe and make 2 loaves of bread.**

I can't wait to make this miracle bread!
I made this and it was a miracle! I accidentally put in twice the amount of water the first batch so I used it anyway but since it was MIRACLE bread I whipped out another batch with the proper amount of water in like five minutes. Hot bread in an hour! I want to try the wheat version b/c the white was a little too wonder bread for me.
I LOVED this bread when I made it. Good find.
