-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 1/2 C All-Purpose Flour -- Unbleached
2 Pkg Active Baker's Yeast
2 C skim milk
3 Tbsps margarine -- melted
1/3 C granulated sugar
2 Tsps salt
2 egg whites -- whipped
5 1/2 C All-Purpose Flour -- Unbleached
CAN USE THIS RECIPE in conjunction with Lemon Sticky Buns recipe.
In a mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups flour and yeast. In a saucepan, heat
milk, margarine, sugar, and salt just until warm (115 to 120F), stirring
constantly until margarine almost melts.
Add liquid to dry ingredients in mixing bowl along with egg whites. Beat
at low speed for 1/2 minute, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat 3
minutes at high speed.
Stir in remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon. Turn out onto a
lightly floured surface. Knead in enough flour to make a stiff dough that
is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total).
Divide dough into thirds. Shape each of 2 portions into loaves. Store in
freezer container with a double thickness of waxed paper between.
Divide remaining dough into 16 balls. Arrange balls 1" apart in a freezer
container.
This makes 2 loaves and 16 balls.
