Sweet Yeast Dough
This recipe makes 1 2 lb (1 kg) servings
Making the dough in a bread machine makes it slightly puffier than one made by hand.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 pkg active dry yeast, (or 2-1/4 tsp/11 mL)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 cups all purpose flour, (approx)
Preparation
Meanwhile, in small saucepan, heat milk, remaining sugar, butter and salt until butter is melted; let cool to lukewarm. Stir into yeast mixture along with eggs.
Stir in 3-1/4 cups (800 mL) of the flour, about 1 cup (250 mL) at a time, to form shaggy dough.
Turn out onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, adding enough of the remaining flour as necessary.
Transfer to large greased bowl, turning to grease all over. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1-1/2 hours.
