4 cups flour
5 tsp. instant yeast
3 tbsp. sugar or honey
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 cup oil
1 cup warm water (110 degrees)
1 large egg, warmed and beaten
3 tbsp. dry milk powder

Mix warmed water and milk powder together.  Pour into mixing bowl and add yeast and sugar/honey.  Mix well and let sit until yeast blooms.

Add oil, salt, beaten egg and mix again.

Add flour and mix.  Knead for 7 minutes – dough should be tacky.

Turn onto a silicon mat and hand knead to bring dough together into a nice ball.  Place on mat and cover with mixing bowl for 15 minutes.

Remove bowl and hand knead to gently deflate dough.  You can use a rolling pin at this point or begin turning the dough over in small portions, forming a long log by hand.  Repeat this process to ensure the gas bubbles are deflated.  Now roll up into a log to fit into a 13″ pullman.  Gently press into the bottom of a lightly greased pan and place in oven with only the light on.

Watch until the dough is about 1″ from the top and remove from oven.  Heat your oven to 375 degrees.  Be sure to keep the dough in a warm location.  Bake with lid on for 30 minutes.  Test for an internal temperature of 200.  Turn out immediately on a cooling rack and cover with dishtowel.
