Finally! An excellent, easy KitchenAid or stand mixer bread recipe that really allows the mixer to do all the mixing and kneading for you.
Ingredients
- 6½ Cups All-Purpose Flour
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Salt
- 3 Tablespoons Lard (can substitute shortening)
- 1½ Tablespoons Instant Yeast (Rapid Rise or Bread machine yeast may be substituted in equal amounts)
- 2½ Cups Very Warm Water (around 120F to allow the yeast to act)
Instructions
- Place all dry ingredients and the lard in the KitchenAid mixer.
- Using the flat beater attachment, mix dry ingredients and lard through. Use the “stir” or lowest setting, for just 1 to 2 minutes until the dry mix looks uniform.
- With the mixer still running, pour in the water and mix just until dough is wet through, shaggy, and sticky–just 30 seconds to a minute.
- Stop, remove the flat beater, and place the dough hook onto your stand mixer.
- Set to speed 1 or 2 and let the mixer run, kneading the dough, for 6 to 8 minutes.
- After kneading, stop, remove the dough hook and let the dough rest in the Kitchenaid mixer bowl for 10 minutes.
- Grease 2 bread loaf pans. Shape dough into 2 loaves*, place in pans, and cover with a clean, damp towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled/about an inch above the rim of the pan.
- Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
