Best bread ever!

There are probably many great bread recipes out there, but this one is definitely one of the top 5. I used to use a bread machine I was given, which would make one loaf at a time and when it cooled down it would go crumbly when cut. not cool. I stopped making bread for a while, then my mom got this recipe from Bosch. Once I tasted of its chewy goodness, it was love at first bite! I knew this is THEE recipe I've been waiting for all my life. ;) It makes FIVE loaves at a time, is so chewy and moist...even after you freeze it, just warm up in the microwave, smother some butter on it and it's just like it came out of the oven! ooooooooh so yummy!

It says you can use this recipe for cinnamon rolls also. I decided to try it and wow, did it ever work. They came out like massively mammoth sized! I wish i would've taken a picture, but they were HUGE! (think almost triple the size of a normal one) haha I had to laugh when I saw them, but no matter, cuz they tasted awesome! A mammoth slice of heaven in your mouth.

Is your mouth watering yet?? Go try it out, you will not be disappointed!

This recipe calls for dough enhancer and wheat gluten. Dough enhancer will give your bread a fine light texture. Gluten, a natural protein derived from wheat, provides elasticity, strength, adds texture, helps to retain moisture and prevents crumbling and extends shelf life of bread.
