Today’s recipe comes from a cookbook titled “Daughter of Utah Pioneers Cookbook”. This particular recipe was written by one Carol Crane (Thanks Carol!). Try it out, I promise you’ll love it!
EASY FRENCH BREAD
INGREDIENTS:
-
2 1/2 cups water
-
2 Tablespoons yeast
-
1/4 cup sugar
-
1 Tablespoon salt
-
1/3 cup oil
-
6-7 cups flour
-
Sesame seeds (optional)
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add other ingredients. Knead 5 to 10 minutes to a soft dough. Let rise. Shape into 2 long and narrow loaves. Preheat oven. Place on a large greased cookie sheet. Use rolling pin to get out air bubbles. Brush with one whole egg that has been beaten. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Make 4 diagonal slices across the top. Let it rise again but don’t let it rise more than double before it’s baked. Bake at 375-4oo degrees for 30 minutes.
Serve warm with butter and jam, and don’t worry about counting the carbs. ENJOY!
Happy Baking!
