Dissolve 1 tbs (15 mL) brown sugar in warm water
in small bowl. Add yeast and let mixture stand.
Place 4 cups (945 mL) flour, powdered milk,
1/3 cup (80 mL) brown sugar, and salt in mixer bowl.
Attach bowl and dough hook to mixer. Turn to Speed
2 and mix about 15 seconds. Continuing on Speed 2,
gradually add yeast mixture and oil to flour mixture
and mix about 1-1/2 minutes longer. Stop and scrape
bowl, if necessary.
Continuing on Speed 2, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup
(120 mL) at a time, and mix about 2 minutes, or until
dough starts to clean sides of bowl. Knead on Speed
2 about 2 minutes longer.
NOTE: Dough may not form a ball on hook.
However, as long as hook comes in contact with
dough, kneading will be accomplished. Do not
add more than the maximum amount of flour
specified or a dry loaf will result.
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease
top. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft,
about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
Punch dough down and divide in half. Shape each
half into a loaf as directed in the "Shaping a Loaf"
section. Place in greased 8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2"
(21.25 x 11.25 x 6.25 cm) baking pan. Cover. Let
rise in warm place, free from draft, about 1 hour,
or until doubled in bulk.
Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15 minutes. Reduce
oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake
20 to 30 minutes longer. Remove from pans
immediately and cool on wire racks.
