Awesome Homemade Bakery French Bread
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Yeast
- 1/2 cup Warm Water
- 2 cups Hot Water
- 3 Tablespoons Sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/3 cup Oil
- 6 1/2 cups Flour
- 1 Egg for brushing on bread
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve your yeast in ½ cup warm water.
Make sure that your water is warm (not too cold, not too hot). Let proof for 10
minutes. - In a separate mixing bowl, combine hot water, sugar, salt,
oil and 3 cups of the flour and mix together. Add the yeast mixture to a bowl. - Add the remaining 3 1/2 cups of flour, one cup at a time,
mixing after each addition. Watch for it to start pulling away from the bowl to
know it’s ready. Once all of the flour is added, let sit for 10 minutes. - Separate your dough into 3 pieces. On a floured surface roll
each piece into a 9×12 rectangle. Roll it up like a jelly roll. Shape into a
french bread loaf and smooth out edges. - Place the dough on a greased baking pan or a Silpat, seam
side down. Using a knife, make 3-4 diagonal cuts about 1/4 inch thick in bread.
Brush with your beaten egg. - Let dough rise uncovered for 30-40 minutes in a warm place.
- Bake at 375 for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
