Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl. Stir in milk, 3/4 cup sugar, 3 eggs, salt, margarine or butter, and 3 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make the dough easy to handle. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic - about 5 minutes. Place in a greased bowl and let rise in a warm place until it is double in size - about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch down dough and divide in half. Shape each half into a round slightly flat loaf. Place each loaf into a well greased round 9" x 1 1/2" pan. Cover and let rise until double (a/b an hour). Heat oven to 350°F. Beat 1 egg and brush over tops of loaves. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of sugar. Bake until loaves are golden brown, about 35-45 minutes.

Gradually beat in sugar, then melted butter. Combine egg and yeast mixtures. Blend thoroughly. Add 1 1/3 cups of the flour and 1/4 cup milk. Beat until completely mixed. Add another 1 1/3 cups flour and beat till blended. (All ingredients should be in your dough now except for the last of the flour you will be kneading with.) Turn out the dough on floured board. Add last 1 1/3 cups flour* and knead dough till smooth and elastic, 75 to 100 times. Make a ball of dough, place in an oiled bowl, cover with damp cloth, and let rise in warm place. When double in bulk, punch down, divide dough into 2 round balls and place on 2 oiled pie pans or in oiled bread pans. Allow it to double in bulk (about 1 hour). Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush loaves with beaten eggs. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until brown and done. They may be frozen.

  • Additional flour may have to be added to make a soft dough. Dough should be smooth not sticky after kneading is complete. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
