Let’s Bake Amish Crusty Bread

Today I’m making homemade Amish Crusty Bread. I found an incredible recipe online & I’m going to attempt to make it in my own kitchen this morning. Join me!
Recipe~
Ingredients:
1 & 1/4 cups very warm tap water.
1/4 cup sweetener; you may use maple syrup, agave syrup, honey or sugar.
1 & 1/4 teaspoon salt.
1/4 cup oil
6 cups flour
---------
1. In a large bowl, mix the maple syrup with the warm water, and then stir in yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam.
2. Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time. Knead dough on slightly floured surface until smooth. Place in a well-oiled bowl, and turndough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk,about 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down. Knead for a few minutes; then divide in half. Shape into loaves,and place into two well-oiled 9 x 5 inch loaf pans. Allow to rise for 30minutes, or until dough has risen 1 inch above pans.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes.
Remove loaves from pans and place on cooling rack. Cool thoroughly before slicing

I don't like bread machines, but now that I have arthritis I use my stand mixer to let it need my dough works wonders

You have to knead the bread more. It won't be dense when left to rise with yeast. The kneading technique u are using is perfect for Sodabread

It was driving me crazy watching this for someone who worked in multiple bakeries and is a “so-called pastry chef “you could’ve fooled me!😊
