Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 1/4 c unbleached flour
2 pkgs dry yeast
2 c skim milk
3 tbsps reduced fat margarine -- melted
1/3 c granulated sugar
2 tsps salt
2 whole eggs -- slightly beaten

In a mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups flour and yeast. In a saucepan,
heat milk, margarine, sugar, and salt just until warm (115 to 120
degrees), stirring constantly until margarine almost melts. Add liquid
to dry ingredients in mixing bowl along with eggs. Beat at low speed for
1/2 minute, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat 3 minutes at high
speed. Stir in remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon. Turn out
onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough flour to make a stiff
dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Divide dough
into thirds. Shape each of 2 portions into loaves. Store in freezer
container with a double thickness of waxed paper between. Divide
remaining dough into 16 balls. Arrange balls 1" apart in a freezer
container.
