Home-Style Yeast Bread

Directions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the sugar, butter, salt, eggs and 4 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough.
2. 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.
3. Punch dough down; turn onto a floured surface. Divide in half. Shape into loaves and place in two greased 9x5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
4. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
