- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 8-10 minutes.
- Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
- Punch dough down. (Good Fun)
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough in half. Shape each into a loaf.
- Place in two greased 9x5-in. loaf pans.
- Cover and let rise until doubled, 30-45 minutes.
