Wah! The bread machine broke. J only made 14 loaves this weekend.

I'm going to have to teach him to make bread the old-fashioned way, so here's the recipe for four loaves:

Bring to near boiling point:
4 cups water

Stir into
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup powdered skim milk
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil or hard margarine

Allow to cool to room temperature, then beat in:
6 cups whole wheat flour
3 teaspoons yeast

Stir in, mixing by hand at the end:
5 cups white flour

Knead until smooth, then turn into a large bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled in bulk.

Punch down and shape into four loaves.

Allow to rise again, and bake at 325F for about 15 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
