This cooking group will meet on the 2nd Thursday of every month. It is a place to meet as friends, get new recipes and maybe even learn some new cooking skills.


Simply the BEST Bread


5 cups flour (up to 1 c. of cooked cereal may be substituted for an equal amount of flour)
¼ cup sugar (can substitute with honey or molasses)
½ Tablespoon salt
1- ½ rounded Tablespoons instant yeast
¼ cup oil
2 cups hot tap water (substitute ½ c. applesauce for ½ c. water for a more moist bread especially when making whole wheat)

Mix dry ingredients. Add liquids. Mix for 1 minute and check consistency. If dough is too dry add more water. Dough should be very sticky, like cookie dough. Mix for 5 minutes. (10 minutes for whole wheat) Do not add flour to the dough after it's done mixing.

Spray counter and pans with cooking spray. Spray hands to keep dough from sticking to them while working with the dough. Shape loaves, place in pan and cover with a clean dish towel. Let raise 25 minutes. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes.
