Nothing better than the smell of home baked bread, so easy and no preservatives or additives!
1lb strong bread flour
7g fast acting yeast
1tsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 pint lukewarm water
Place the flour, yeast, sugar and salt into mixer bowl.
Use dough hook attachment combine all ingredients, add water slowly.
Mix until smooth dough.
Remove from bowl onto floured surface and knead into ball shape, place in bowl with a damp cloth covering, and leave in warm place till double in size.
remove from bowl and knead air out again, divide in two, shape into oblong shapes and place into 2 small loaf tins (greased and floured).
Cover again, and leave till double size again.
Sprinkle flour on op of loaves and place in centre of hot oven Gas 7, for aprox 25 mins or until golden brown on top.
Place on cooling trays.
tip:- I tap bottom of loaves when they come out of oven, if you get a hollow sound, you know they are cooked.
