English Muffin Bread

breads

1 pkg dry yeast
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup water, 105f.
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup whole milk
2 2/3 cup flour
yellow cornmeal

Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water (105F). Let stand until
the
yeast foams in about 5 minutes.

Scald the milk and let cool until warm (110F).

Add the salt, milk and just under 1/2 of the flour. Beat until smooth
and
elastic. Beat in the remaining flour to make a dough that is stiff but
too
soft of knead.

Grease a 8 x 4 x 2 " loaf pan. Sprinkle the inside of the pan with
cornmeal. Turn the batter into the pan and pat the top smooth. Dust
lightly
with cornmeal.

Let the dough rise, uncovered, until the dough almost fills the pan
(about
45 minutes).

Preheat oven to 375F. Bake until golden and the loaf tests done (about
30
minutes). Remove from pan and cool.

Yield: 1 loaf
