Bread Recipe (The "Bread Lady's" Recipe)  by Sarah H.
From Start to finish in 1 hour!
Use this recipe for making: Loaves, cinnamon rolls, pizza crust, rolls, braids and dessert breads.

• 10 1/2 cups white bread flour (do not use all purpose flour)
• 1/2 cup sugar or brown sugar, honey or molasses
• 1 tbsp salt
• 3 rounded tbsp SAF instant yeast (will rise only once)
• 3 tbsp of liquid lecithin (squeeze 3 quarter sized circles right into the bowl, because liquid lecithin is so sticky, it will stick to everything. Do not measure.)
• 4 cups hot tap water (as hot as you can get it, so it will disolve the lecithin and yeast. It will not kill the yeast.)

Mix all dry ingredients togehter and turn mixer on for a few seconds. Add lecithin and water. Mix for 1 minute and check consistency. Dough should be very sticky and stick to sides of bowl at least half way up. (If dough is too dry, add more water. If dough is too moist, add more flour.) Mix for 5 minutes. (Do not add water of flour to the dough after it has finished mixing.) Spray counter and pans with pam or olive oil. Make sure your hands have oil on them before the dough is removed from the mixer. Take the dough and place it on the counter and cut into 4 equal parts for bread loaves. Shape loaves and cover with a dish towel. Let rise 25 minutes.
Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

Orange Rolls  by Billie W.
You can use any homemade roll recipe, but this is my favorite.

• 2 Cup warm water
• 3 Tbsp yeast
• 2/3 cups Sugar
• 2 - 3 Cups Flour
• Let sit for 15 minutes
• Add together
• 3 eggs beaten
• 1 sq butter
• 1 tsp Salt

Add to the above then add flour until you still have a sticky mixture.  About 2-3 Cup flour add slowly you want to keep your dough a bit sticky.  Let raise 1 hour.

Orange mixture

• 1 Squares Butter
• 2 Cups Sugar
• 3 orange peels grated
• Beat well 

Roll out dough into a circle you can divide your dough into 3 parts so you circle are smaller.  Spread Orange mixture onto the dough and roll up like cinnamon rolls and cut into 2 1/2 inch and put into greased muffin tins.  Bake at 400 for 10 min. make sure you take them out of your pans immediately so they won't stick.  I loosen them and tip them on their side and let them sit in the pan a few minutes to cool them take them out. 

My family loves these.

Soft Dinner Rolls  by Martha M.

• 1/2 liter milk (about 2 c.) -- if using "fresh" milk, scald it first and then cool
• 1/2 c. sugar
• 1/2 c. corn, canola, or other vegetable oil
• 2 t. salt (I actually use 1 T. here in Italy because the salt doesn't seem as potent)
• 2 eggs
• 1 c. mashed potatoes (if you have them -- completely optional)

Leave for 10 minutes:

• 1/2 c. warm water
• 2 T. yeast
• 1 T. sugar

Add flour a couple of cups at a time at first, then decrease to a cup, stirring well after each addition until it gets too thick to stir.  Knead for about 10 minutes or until very smooth.
Put in a greased bowl for about an hour.  Push down.  Let rise again if you have time or wait about 15-20 minutes.  Form into small balls about the size of a golf ball and place in a pan just so they are next to each other, almost touching.  Let raise about 30-45 minutes.  Cook in the oven for about 15-20 minutes at 350 (180 Centigrade).  Rub tops of rolls with butter when they are hot from the oven.
