Vegan White Sandwich Bread

Ever since reading that there is duck and human hair used in breads at the store to make them more fluffy, I haven't been able to eat bread since!!! YUCK! So I decided from now on we will be eating ONLY home made bread!!! Today I made my first 2 loaves of white sandwich bread and it is YUMMY! My husband and kids were definitely surprised and happy with it. 

**It seems like a long process but it really isn't that bad. 

Ingredients:

2 cups warm almond/soy milk

1/4 cup white sugar(I use Stevia)

1 1/2 T. active dry yeast

6 cups white bread flour

1 1/2 t. salt

1/4 cup oil

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl: mix almond milk, sugar and yeast, stirring gently to dissolve. Let mixture rest for 5-10 minutes or until foamy. 

2. In a medium bowl combine flour and salt.

3. Add oil to yeast mixture. Gradually add the flour: about one cup at a time. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until elastic and firm. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a warm place for 1 hour or until dough is doubled in bulk.

4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, oil two 9"x5" loaf pans.

5. Punch down dough and turn out onto a dry surface, kneading 3-4 minutes. Divide dough in half, shape into two loaves and place in pans. Let the loaves rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes more, or until loaves have risen above the edges of the pans.

6. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly in pans before serving.

**Bread will keep for 5 days wrapped in plastic wrap.
