For many years, I've been making 45 loaves of this bread for an annual Christmas bazaar, where we feed bread and soup to over 300 folks. — Beverley Whaley, Camano Island, Washington

Ingredients

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
1 cup Sourdough Starter
2 large eggs. room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
6 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Melted butter

Method

1
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the Sourdough Starter, eggs, sugar, oil, salt and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Shape into loaves. Place in 2 greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
