This is what I cook… when I want to bake bread. Living at 9100 ft above sea level, I was always nervous about baking bread. This bread turns out every time.  Ingredients:  3 cups all purpose flour 2 tsp salt 1 pkg yeast 1 tsp sugar 1 1/4 cups warm water Combine flour and salt in mixer. In separate bowl, combine yeast, sugar & water. Pour mixture into flour mixture and mix until forms a ball. Using dough hook, knead dough for 15 minutes. Place in greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let dough rise for 45 minutes. Once risen to 1.5 its size, stretch dough and make round bread shape.  Place in a lightly greased Dutch oven with cover or bread pan if you don’t have a Dutch oven, bake at 350 for 50-55 minutes.
