   2       pk           Dry yeast
     1/2   c            Warm water
     1/2   c            Nonfat dry milk powder
     2/3   c            Sugar, granulated
     1/2   c            Oil, vegetable
   1       t            Salt
   2                    Eggs
   1 1/3   c            Warm water
   7 1/2   c            Flour, all-purpose, as neede

  Soften yeast in 1/2 cup warm water for 10 minutes.
  Using a large food processor, electric mixer or wooden
  spoon, beat yeast mixture, dry milk powder, sugar,
  oil, salt and eggs until smooth.  Add 1 1/3 cups warm
  water and 2 cups of the flour; beat until smooth.  Add
  remaining flour, a little at a time, beating well
  after each addition.  Stop adding flour when a stiff
  dough is formed.  Without a heavy-duty mixer or food
  processor, you will need to work in the last of the
  flour with your hands.  With dough hook or by hand on
  a lightly floured surface, knead until dough is smooth
  and elastic.  Place in a greased bowl and turn to
  grease top.  Cover and let rise until double in bulk,
  about 2 1/2 hours.  Punch dough down and fold over
  edges, pressing until air bubbles are pushed out.
  Divide dough into 4 pieced.  form each piece into a
  loaf or ball.  Place in greased 8x4 inch loaf pans or
  8-inch round cake pans.  Cover and allow to rise until
  double in size, about 1 hour.  Bake in a preheated 350
  oven for 40 minutes or until nicely browned and done.
  Remove from pans and cool on wire racks. Freeze extra
  loaves for futureuse.
