Coffee Can Bread





2 empty 1 pound size coffee cans

1 (1/2 ounce) pkg. dry yeast

1/2 cup warm water

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

4 cups sifted all purpose flour

2 eggs



Dissolve yeast in water. Combine milk with oil, sugar and salt in saucepan. Heat until sugar dissolves. Cool to lukewarm. Stir yeast mixture into 1 1/2 cups flour. Add milk mixture and beat until smooth. Stir in eggs and remaining 2 1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth and elastic.

Grease the coffee cans.
Spoon into the 1-pound coffee cans. Cover with plastic lids or plastic wrap. Let rise until dough almost touches lid, about 1 hour. Remove lids. Place cans on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for 30-35 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before removing from can.
