Baking bread



Today I made bread. It was easy and fun.



I even made some fun shapes out of cookie cutters like the spider below.


Here is the recipe:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

1 packet quick rise yeast
1 1/2 lbs flour
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tsp salt
2 tsp oil

Mix it up. Sprinkle counter with flour and start to knead the dough. Knead for about 10 minutes. Divide the dough into smaller pieces. Pull off chunks to shape into people or anything you want. Put on greased cookie sheet. Cover dough with plastic wrap and put in warm place for 30 minutes. Brush on beaten egg and decorate (if you want) with seeds or raisins. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
