Since this bread cooks at a high temp (450), I was curious if it would work in a solar oven. The oven got to about 300. It took 1 1/2 hours (these were small loaves, big ones might take longer). It wasn't really browned on the outside like in the regular oven. But it was tasty! In fact I think I like the taste better!
This makes 2 regular size loaves, or 4 small solar oven loaves.
2 Tbs yeast
2 cups warm water
2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
4 1/2-5 cups bread flour
Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add salt, sugar & 2 c flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough flour to form soft dough. Knead until smooth & elastic, 6-8 min. Rise 1 hour. Divide in half, shape into loaves. Cover & rise 30 min. Make slashes on top. Bake at 450 15-20 min, or in solar oven until done. Can brush egg whites on top before baking.
This really is so yummy! You won't be able to stop eating it!
