Baking Bread

Baking Bread


During this hectic time, Little Lakeview Conservatory LLC is getting back to basics by making a few items that have noticeably been missing from the grocery store shelves lately. Here is the recipe for making this bread. You can add in your favorite herbs or cheese when baking. As Little Lakeview Conservatory LLC won't be able to sell our herbs at the local Farmer's Market, we had an abundance of fresh herbs to add to our recipe today, including oregano and savory.

What you will need:

  • An Oven 
  • (2) 9x5 inch baking pans
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • A wet cloth 
  • 5-6 cups of Flour
  • 2 cups of warm water (110 degrees F)
  • 1/2 cup of white sugar
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp of active dry yeast 
  • 1 1/2 Tsp of Salt
  • Herbs 1-2 Tbsp or to taste
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 
  • additional oil for preparing pans








How to:

  • In a large bowl mix sugar and water and yeast. 
  • Wait 5 min.
  • Mix salt, herbs and oil into mixture.
  • Mix in flour one cup at a time until all is added.
  • Roll into a ball and place in a large oiled bowl with a wet cloth over it until the dough has doubled in size (approximately an hour) at room temperature. 


  • Grease baking pans.
  • Knead the dough down for about a minute, separate into two balls and place each ball into a greased baking pan.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Let the dough in the pans rise until it is one inch over the pan. 


  • Bake for 30 minutes at 350.
  • Let cool and enjoy!
