Very easy bread recipe that I use for sandwich bread, pizza dough, and even naan! I live in Colorado Springs at an altitude of about 5,500 feet. This recipe works really well for me.
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water , 100 degrees F/40 degrees C
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 3 cups bread flour
- 0.25 cups coconut oil , melted
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
-
1
Combine water and yeast and let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes.

2
Combine flour, coconut oil, sugar, salt, and yeast mixture in a bowl. Knead until silky-smooth, about 15 minutes. Place dough in a large, lightly-oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.

Punch down dough and turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a loaf and place into the prepared pan. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.

Beef Pastitsio
This Greek-inspired casserole uses ground beef in place of lamb.
Zucchini Carrot Bread
This delicious zucchini and carrot bread is a light version of a classic quick bread. It's so moist and rich, you would never guess it doesn't have all the oil that the original version has.
