Easy White Bread
"You can make terrific bread in six steps!! It is really easy to make. This bread has been a hit with our family for many years. I adapted it from a recipe on a package of Winn Easybake Yeast and Bread Improver.
The recipe makes 2 680g (1 1/2 lb loaves). Use your imagination when baking the bread. Use smaller loaf tins to make different sizes of loaves. Make rolls, etc."

- Knock down, knead lightly. Cut to size required, cover with moist cloth, stand for 10 minutes.
- Knead well, mould to the required shape. Place in greased tin or on greased tray.
- Cover wtih a damp cloth and let the bread rise in a draft-free place until 2 - 3 times its original size. Brush lightly with milk, beated egg or shortening.
