English Muffin Bread!

   I had never made a loaf of bread before until this recipe, and oh my goodness am I glad I did!  My friend Tahlor had posted on her Facebook about this recipe and raved about how good it was so I knew I needed to try it!  The recipe for Carole's English Muffin Bread makes 4  regular sized loafs but I made mine in mini loaf pans and halved the recipe because I didn't have enough flour on hand that day!  This bread was a hit with everyone in my family...my grandma was visiting and she loved it too!  The recipe comes from "one good thing" by jillee and if you go to the link they have a step by step picture tutorial for you to look at!


INGREDIENTS
5 1/2 cups warm water
3 packages yeast
2 tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons sugar
11 cups flour (i used all purpose)

MAKE IT
1. Mix altogether, let rise in bowl until double in bulk, the spoon into (4) well greased loaf pans. Let rise in pans until dough reaches the top of the pan, and bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or until golden brown. 10 minutes before its done, brush with melted butter.  (bread will be moist at first, allow to cool completely before cutting..makes terrific toast!)

I got the recipe off of friends blog my rustic simplicity and it is totally a must have! This recipe is really simple...doesn't call for a bunch of ingredients! I hope that you love them as much as I do! I don't have a fryer so I used a frying pan and the still came out super delicious!

salt
pepper
2 cups of soy sauce
2 cups of sugar
1 bulb of green onion (add some of the green too)
3 tablespoons garlic

MAKE IT
1.Mix the soy sauce, sugar, onion, and garlic together, this is the sauce for the chicken wings. Mix the flour, salt, and pepper together and coat the chicken wings in it. Then fry in a frying pan or fryer until they are done, about 8 to 10 minutes.
2. Once the chicken wings are done cooking immediately put them in the sauce mixture and stir them until fully coated, leave them in the sauce for about five minutes...then remove and serve!
