5 cups hot tap water
1/4 cup oil
3/4 cup honey
1 T salt
2 T instant yeast
10-12 cups flour (half wheat and half white)
In bread mixer put water, oil, and honey, (put honey in same cup as oil and it comes out a lot easier!), salt, and 1/2 the flour. Start to mix and then add yeast and enough flour until the dough cleans the sides of the bowl. Let machine knead for 6 minutes. Let rise for 10 to 15 minutes (this step can be eliminated if you're in a hurry!). Put oil on counter and roll or pound into loaves. Put into greased pans and let rise 15 to 20 minutes on top of warm stove. Bake at 350 deg for 30 minutes. After putting bread on cooling racks, rub stick of butter all over the top (this makes your bread look pretty). Make 4 medium sized loaves.
Raspberry Butter
1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter, room temperature
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the berries and powdered sugar until softened.
Remove from heat and let cool.
Add butter and mix until combined. This may take a few minutes, but it will come together.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
