Ingredients

• ✓ active dry yeast
• water
• sucralose sweetener
• butter
• salt
• egg
• whole wheat flour
• all-purpose flour
• rolled oat
• egg

Instructions

1. 1 Mix the yeast and water together in a large bowl, and let stand until a creamy layer forms on top, about 5 minutes. Beat in 3 eggs, sweetener, butter, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and rolled oats. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, 5 to 10 minutes.
2. 2 Form the dough into a compact round shape, and place in an oiled bowl. Turn the dough over several times in the bowl to oil the surface of the dough, cover the bowl with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
3. 3 Punch down the dough, and cut into 3 equal-size pieces. Working on a floured surface, roll the dough pieces into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. Ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends. Pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. Starting with the strand to the right, move it to the left over the middle strand (that strand becomes the new middle strand.) Take the strand farthest to the left, and move it over the new middle strand. Continue braiding, alternating sides each time, until the loaf is braided, and pinch the ends together and fold them underneath for a neat look. Place the braided challah on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover the loaf with a dry cloth, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
4. 4 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
5. 5 Brush the loaf with 1 beaten egg, and bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool before slicing.

Instructions

1. 1 In a large bowl, stir together the flour, salt, yeast, and vital wheat gluten until well mixed. In another bowl, stir together the honey, olive oil, water, eggs, and raisins. Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture, and stir until it forms a dough.
2. 2 Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Form the dough into a round shape. Lightly oil a bowl, place the dough in the bowl, and turn the dough over a few times to oil the surface. Cover the bowl with a cloth, and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. 3 Punch down the dough, knead it a few times to remove some of the bubbles, and cut it into 2 equal-sized pieces. Set 1 piece of dough aside under a cloth to prevent drying out while you shape or braid the first loaf as desired.
4. 4 Working on a floured surface, roll the small dough pieces into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. Ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends. Pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. Starting with the strand to the right, move it to the left over the middle strand (that strand becomes the new middle strand.) Take the strand farthest to the left, and move it over the new middle strand. Continue braiding, alternating sides each time, until the loaf is braided, and pinch the ends together and fold them underneath for a neat look. Repeat for the other loaf, place the braided loaves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ active dry yeast
• bread flour
• water
• egg
• vegetable oil
• honey
• salt
• whole wheat flour
• water
• sesame seed

Instructions

1. 1 Combine 1 cup bread flour, 2 1/8 cups warm water, and yeast in a large bowl into a thin batter; let stand until frothy bubbles appear, about 10 minutes. Stir in 3 eggs, vegetable oil, honey, and salt until well combined. Beat in whole wheat flour and remaining 2 cups bread flour, alternating flours by cupfuls, until dough is too stiff to stir in more flour.
2. 2 Turn dough out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, adding more flour if needed to form a slightly sticky dough. Form dough into a round shape; place in a large, lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat a few times to oil the surface. Cover the bowl with a plastic bag and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, 1 to 2 hours.
3. 3 Punch down dough and knead a few times to remove some gas bubbles; cut into 3 equal-sized pieces. Set two dough pieces aside, covered by a cloth to prevent drying out while preparing loaves.
4. 4 Cut remaining dough piece into 3 equal parts; transfer to a floured surface and roll parts into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. Ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends. Pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. Starting with the strand on the right, move it to the left over the middle strand (that strand becomes the new middle strand). Take the strand farthest to the left and move it over the new middle strand. Continue braiding, alternating sides each time, until loaf is braided; pinch ends together and fold them underneath for a neat look. Repeat cutting and braiding with remaining 2 dough pieces. Place braided loaves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; let rise until doubled in volume, 45 to 60 minutes.
5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
6. 6 Beat remaining 1 egg with 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl; brush over braided challah loaves. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

• egg
• salt
• flour
• milk
• olive oil
• egg white
• sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Dissolve honey in warm water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in yeast and set aside until a creamy layer forms on the top, about 15 minutes.
2. 2 Stir 2/3 cup olive oil, beaten eggs, and salt into yeast mixture until well combined. Mix in flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough is slightly tacky but not sticky wet.
3. 3 Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turn dough over a few times to grease the surface, then let rise until doubled in a warm, draft-free place, about 90 minutes.
4. 4 Punch down dough and cut it into 2 equal-sized pieces. Cut the first piece into 4 equal parts. Set the second piece aside under a cloth to prevent drying out while you braid the first loaf.
5. 5 To braid the first 4-strand loaf, roll the 4 pieces of dough into thin ropes about the width of your thumb, and about 14 inches long. Make the tops and bottoms of each rope thinner than the middle area. Pinch the tops of the 4 ropes together and fan the 4 ropes out so they don't touch.
6. 6 To make an "under-2, over-1 braid," take the left-most rope, and move it to the right to cross underneath the next 2 ropes, then move it left to cross back over the strand immediately to its left. Take the far right strand, and move it to the left and cross it under the two strands to its left (they are already crossed from the previous braid); then move it right to cross back over the strand immediately to its right. Repeat until the 4 strands are braided together all the way to the end. Pinch the ends tightly together. Repeat the steps to braid the second loaf and let the braided loaves rise for 1 hour.
7. 7 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
8. 8 Whisk together milk, 2 tablespoons olive oil, egg white, and sugar in a small bowl until glaze is well combined. Brush glaze over braided loaves.
9. 9 Bake loaves in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Instructions

1. 1 Dissolve yeast and 1/3 cup sugar in 2 cups warm water in a large bowl. Let stand until a creamy layer forms on top, about 5 minutes. Stir in 3 cups flour to make a loose sponge.
2. 2 Beat 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 4 eggs, and 1 tablespoon salt together in a separate bowl; stir into yeast-flour sponge until well combined. Continue mixing in flour, 1 cup at a time, up to 9 cups total. Dough should be slightly sticky, but not so wet that it leaves dough stuck to your hands.
3. 3 Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead to develop gluten, 5 minutes. Form into a compact round shape; place in an oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a cloth and let rise in a warm area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Punch down dough and knead until smooth and elastic, 5 minutes.
4. 4 Grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper. Whisk 2 teaspoons sugar, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon oil, and 1 teaspoon water together in a small bowl; refrigerate until glaze needed.
5. 5 Cut dough into 4 pieces; cut each piece into 3 smaller pieces for 3-strand braided loaves. Working on a floured surface, roll 12 dough pieces into ropes about the thickness of your thumb and about 12 inches long. Ropes should be fatter in the middle and thinner at the ends. Pinch 3 ropes together at the top and braid them. Starting with the strand farthest right, move it to the left over the middle strand (it now becomes the new middle strand). Take the strand farthest to the left, move it over the new middle strand (it now becomes the new middle strand). Continue braiding, alternating sides, until loaf is braided. Pinch ends together and fold underneath for a neat look. Repeat with remaining dough ropes. Place 4 loaves onto the prepared baking sheets; let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes. Brush egg glaze coating onto tops of loaves; reserve remaining glaze.

Instructions

1. 1 Mix 3-1/2 cups of the flour, the sugar, salt, oil, and yeast in large bowl. Add warm water. Beat on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour, 1 cup at a time, to make dough easy to handle.
2. 2 Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead about 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in greased bowl and turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in warm place 45 to 50 minutes or until double. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.) If you don't have a warm, draft-free place, I find it works well to place covered bowl on a rack in the oven above a pan of warm water.
3. 3 Grease 2 loaf pans, 9x5x3 or 8-1/2x4-1/2x2-1/2 inches. Punch down dough and divide in half. Shape each half into loaf, place in pans. Brush loaves lightly with margarine if desired. Cover and let rise in warm place 35 to 40 minutes or until double.
4. 4 Place oven rack in low position so that tops of pans will be in center of oven. Heat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until loaves are deep golden brown and sound hollow when tapped; remove from pans. Brush loaves with margarine if desired. Cool on wire rack.

1. 1 Dissolve yeast in warm water in a small bowl; let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes.
2. 2 Meanwhile, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
3. 3 Stir buttermilk into yeast mixture until combined, then add to dry ingredients and stir until moistened. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead 4 to 5 times.
4. 4 Roll dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Cut out twenty-four 2 1/2-inch-diameter circles. Place circles onto lightly greased baking sheets so they are barely touching each other. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until almost doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
5. 5 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
6. 6 Bake biscuits in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ active dry yeast
• water
• white sugar
• bread flour
• rolled oat
• butter
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Combine the hot water, white sugar, and yeast together in the mixing bowl of a large stand mixer; let sit until it forms a creamy layer on top, about 10 minutes.
2. 2 Fit the mixer with a dough hook, and slowly beat in 3 cups of bread flour and the rolled oats until the flour is thoroughly worked in. Place the mixing bowl in a warm place, cover with a cloth, and let the batter rise until doubled and puffy, about 1 hour.
3. 3 Place the mixing bowl back onto the stand mixer, and pour in the butter; start the mixer on low speed, and beat in the remaining 6 cups of bread flour. Sprinkle salt into the dough. Turn the mixer up to medium, and knead the dough until smooth and elastic, 5 to 8 minutes.
4. 4 Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups.
5. 5 Pinch off about 2 tablespoons of dough, and form into a ball about the size of a large cherry tomato. Place the dough ball into a greased muffin cup; make 2 more balls, and place them into the same cup (3 dough balls per cup). Repeat with remaining dough.
6. 6 Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until the turn lightly golden brown, 38 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ active dry yeast
• water
• honey
• vegetable oil
• salt
• bread flour
• egg white

Instructions

1. 1 In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and honey in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
2. 2 In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the oil, salt and 3 cups flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
3. 3 Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into two long oval loaves. Place on two lightly greased baking sheets. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
4. 4 Just before baking, give the risen loaves three shallow slashes with a sharp knife. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, turn heat down to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), brush with beaten egg white. Return loaves to the oven to bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until golden brown and bottoms sound hollow when tapped.

Ingredients

• ✓ active dry yeast
• potato
• water
• white sugar
• shortening
• egg
• salt
• all-purpose flour
• butter

Instructions

1. 1 Place potatoes in a saucepan, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, and mash.
2. 2 In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
3. 3 When yeast is ready, mix in 1 cup mashed potatoes, sugar, shortening, eggs, salt, and 3 cups flour. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough has become stiff but still pliable. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl, and turn to coat with oil. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, and up to 5 days.
4. 4 Deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces, and form into rounds. Roll out each round to a 12 inch circle. Brush generously with melted butter, and cut each circle into 16 wedges. Roll wedges up tightly, starting with the large end. Place on lightly greased baking sheets with the points underneath, and the ends bent to form a crescent shape. Cover, and let rise for 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
5. 5 Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
