This is my first post! Sorry Lindsay, I've been a REAL slacker on here.
This recipe is from my sister and it's pretty fool-proof.
FRENCH BREAD
INGREDIENTS:
1 package fast yeast
1 1/4 cup warm water
1 T sugar
1 T oil
1 t salt
3 - 4 cups flour
Non stick cooking spray
DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine yeast and warm water in large mixing bowl until yeast activates and is bubbly.
2. Add sugar, salt and oil.
3. Stir in flour until dough forms. You don't want too much flour, you can always add more after it rises. Knead until it feels right to you.
4. Form dough into a large ball and place in NEW sprayed mixing bowl. Spray the top of the dough and cover with plastic wrap so that the wrap is touching the dough.
5. Let it rise for at least an hour. Usually I try and allow 2-3 hours.
6. Knead again slightly and form into a long french loaf.
7. Place on sprayed cookie sheet and cut 6-8 diagonal slits in the top of the loaf.
8. Cook at 425 for 20 minutes. (This is the perfect time in CA, but times may differ in different parts of the country.)
9. ENJOY!!!
