6

2½ 1²∕³

teaspoons active dry yeast

tablespoon granulated sugar

cup warm water

(105° to 110°F)

cups unbleached, all-purpose flour

tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces

teaspoons salt cups cold water

nonstick cooking spray

Makes 24 servings (two 9 x 5-inch loaves, 1½ pounds each)

Approximate preparation time: 10 to 15 minutes, plus 2½ hours rising and resting, 35 minutes baking, and 1 hour or longer cooling

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water in a large liquid measuring cup. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.

Insert the dough blade into the large work bowl of the Cuisinart® Food Processor. Add the flour, butter and salt and process on the dough speed until combined, about 10 to 15 seconds. Add the cold water to yeast mixture. With the machine running on dough speed, pour the liquid through the feed tube as fast as the flour absorbs it. Once the dough cleans the sides of the work bowl and forms a ball, process for 45 seconds to knead the dough. Dough should be smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a lightly floured plastic food storage bag and seal. Allow to rest in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 to 1½ hours.

Lightly coat two 9 x 5-inch loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and punch down; let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Divide dough into two equal pieces and shape each into a loaf. Place in prepared pans and cover lightly with plastic wrap. Let rise until dough is just above the tops of the pans, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Bake until the tops are browned and loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from pans and cool on wire rack.
