White Bread

2 Tbs dry active yeast
2 cups warm water
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tbs salt
2 eggs beaten
1/4 cup oil
6 1/2 cups flour

dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water and let sit until yeast activates. Add eggs, salt, oil and 3 cups of flour and beat until smooth. Stir in remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 6-8 min.) Place in a greased bowl, turn once to coat the top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down dough. Divide into 2 pieces and form into loaves. Place in greased bread pans and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Bake at 375F for 25-30 min or until golden brown. Remove from pans and let cool on racks.
