English Muffin Bread

My sister made this for me for breakfast when I was visiting her this past week and it's delicious! Toast it, spread with butter, top with cheese, ham sliced cooked on skillet, cheese. Melt in microwave for a bit. SO YUMMY! Enjoy!

English Muffin (Freezable) Bread Loaves

*Makes 2 loaves

3 C. Flour

1/4 tsp. baking soda

2 pkts. or 4 ½ tsp. yeast

2 C. milk

2 tsp. salt

½ C. water

1 Tbsp. sugar

2 ½ C. additional flour

In large bowl mix first 5 ingredients together. In a small bowl mix water and milk (heat in microwave until hot – usually a minute or two). Pour milk mixture into flour mixture and mix well with a spoon. Stir in remaining flour until you have a very stiff batter. Spoon batter into 2 WELL GREASED bread loaf pans. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. After bread rises, bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until done. Remove from pans IMMEDIATELY, and let cool completely. Cut loaves into thin slices and store in airtight containers or in freezer bags.

* Once the bread is frozen, it will stay fresh for months, and whenever you want a slice, just pull one out of the freezer and pop it in your toaster -- just like an English Muffin!
