Bulk--Corn & Dairy Free Bread Mix Recipe

Note: We recommend a scale to measure out your flour (most accurate). If measuring without a scale, use stackable measuring cups, do not use a liquid measuring cup for dry ingredients.

Yield:  1 large 2 pound loaf

Oven Preparation

INGREDIENTS:

• 19 ounces Corn & Dairy Free Bread Mix from Anna (3 ¾ cups)
• 2 tablespoons honey or sugar
• 1 packet of active dry yeast, or 1 tablespoon bulk yeast (do not use rapid rise yeast)
• ½ cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• ¼ cup oil
• 3 jumbo eggs at room temperature (total egg measurement should be ⅔ – ¾ cup)
• ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water or liquid of your choice

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 8 ½ x 4 ½ in loaf pan.
2. Dissolve honey or sugar in ½ cup warm water. Mix in yeast and set aside until mixture is foamy (5-10 minutes).
3. In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer combine eggs, vinegar, oil and warm liquid. Add dry mix and blend on low until well combined. Add yeast mixture. Gradually increase speed to high and beat for 3-4 minutes.
4. Spoon into prepared pan. Loosely cover with foil or waxed paper, once dough has doubled in bulk (90-120 minutes), place in a hot oven.
5. Uncover and bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. Loosely cover with foil (prevents over browning) and bake for an additional 45-50 minutes.
6. Remove pan from oven and invert onto wire rack. Tap the bottom of your loaf, it should have a hollow sound. If not, bake for 5-minute intervals until it does. Internal temperature of bread when done will be between 195-200 degrees. Cool on wire rack for 1 hour before slicing.
