 Categories: Breads
      Yield: 6 Loaves
 
      1 cup  Warm water
  1 1/2 tsp Granulated sugar
      4 tsp Dry yeast
      2 cup  Porridge
    1/2 cup  Brown sugar
    3/4 cup  Vegetable oil
    1/2 cup  Molasses
      7 cup  All purpose flour
  1 1/2 tsp Salt
 
  A wonderfully fragrant, soft brown bread, porridge bread uses leftover
  oatmeal for taste and texture. 
  In a small bowl, dissolve granulated sugar in warm water, add yeast
  and let rise until foamy.  In a large mixing bowl, blend together
  porridge, brown sugar, molasses and oil.  To porridge mixture, add
  yeast mixture, stirring to combine.  Add 1 cup flour at a time,
  stirring to blend well and continue to add flour until dough starts
  to come clean from the sides of the bowl but is not dry.  Turn onto a
  floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and somewhat elastic.
  Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size. 
  Punch dough down and divide into 6 equal pieces.  Shape loaves and
  place two laves each into 6 greased 10 x 6 inch bread pans.  Cover
  and let rise in a warm draft free place until double.  Bake in a 375F
  (160C) oven for 30 - 40 minutes or until loaves are golden brown.
