Heidi’s Homemade Bread:
Makes five 8x4 inch loaves
1 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. salt
3 Tbsp. Active Dry yeast
1/2 cup instant potato flakes
1/2 cup oil (I use avocado oil)
4 cups warm water
Combine in mixer bowl and let set for 10 minutes until the
yeast blooms.
Then add in
11 cups bread flour
and let mixer run for 8 minutes.
Place dough in a large greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a
warm oven with the light turned on, for 1 hour or until
double in size.
Divide dough into 5 loaves, then shape until surface
is nice and tight, and place in greased loaf pan.
Prick through with a fork a few times to break
largest air pockets to ensure a nice crumb.
Cover and let rise again until loaves are full and
about one inch over the top of the pan.
Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or golden.
Remove loaves carefully to cooling racks, and brush
tops with butter.
Once slightly cool, place in bread bags and loosely
close the ends to keep bread nice and moist.
When cooled completely, close ends with twisties,
and freeze extra loaves and pull out and slice as
needed.
Keeps in the freezer for at least two months.

Any Australian viewers that want to make Lynette’s amazing haystacks ! (Not featured in this video) I’ve made them four times now and WOW - so delicious 😍😍 we don’t have velveta chess in Australia so just purchase the Kraft bright yellow / orange cheese spread and heat it up over water like you would chocolate it’s amazing ! Thanks Lynette ❤

[@sallycowles378]

Thank you for the info re Velveeta cheese, I’m in New Zealand and ave wondered what I can use

[@julieaustin4684]

Aussie here ☺️🙏🏼🇦🇺🐨🍷

[@Emmahb8]

Aussie here too... I have always thought the haystack looked good. Thanks for the alternative.

[@thisgoldenhour]

Oh Lynette, you are SO incredibly kind ❤Thank you for such a sweet shoutout! Your recipes look absolutely delicious 😘

[@LynetteYoder]

You are so welcome

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Boy, that food looked good!!! Grilled chicken is delicious and with the sweet corn… delicious!!!! God bless you and your family.

[@dianamarsden4985]

I really enjoyed this! I enjoy the peace that flows out of you and your contentment with life. You are a strong woman peaceful and warm. I would find you so easy to talk to. I can honestly say that I don’t say that about many people!

[@jenmartin1365]

We love Greek bowls… a lemon parsley vinaigrette is a great addition, along with the tzatziki sauce.

[@evawood9655]

I've gotta try them!!! Looks delicious and so summer'y

[@BigPap62]

My wife and enjoy all your videos. We live in Southern Ohio and frequently visit wheat Ridge and other communities here in southern Ohio. We are actually headed to Holmes County this Sunday for a few days. We’ve been visiting that area for over 25 years now. Usually a couple times a year.

[@terryruiz7417]

I appreciate watching someone who figures dinner out as the days progress. I do the same, with maybe a few ideas running through my head. Sunday dinner is perhaps the only one I might think through a few days in advance. Meats are purchased reduced or pulled from the freezer. I keep on hand ingredients we like and go from there.

[@kathylezcano8793]

The food including the bread looks so delicious.❤ The girls are Growing, they're both so beautiful. Enjoy yourself on your vacation. Well, deserve you and your family. God bless as always, your friend Cathy.❤❤❤

We are from West Virginia & I am a quilter who loves the quilts shops. Thanks for your videos & have a blessed day..

[@elizabethcabrera5718]

You can always make it your own Lynette. Poppyseed dressing would be good with it as well 😊❤ hope this helps

[@cindysteffens8065]

You need to put some EV olive oil with dill and garlic on your Greek bowl. Makes it moist and much more flavorful.

[@donnahawkinsharper8344]

Thank you Lynette. This gave me some delicious ideas for summer meals. That watermelon salad looks yummy. The other day, we traveled over to Tellico Plains, Tennessee to a Mennonite Community Farm Market. Oh, I was in heaven, so many beautiful fruits & veggies. I loaded up. It’s 2 hours from where I live in North Carolina, but so worth the trip. Will go again in a couple weeks. 😊❤😊🙏

[@susanruss4420]

Your salads look great, especially the last one with the walnuts and strawberry dressing.

[@bettyangstadt4242]

Walnut Creek / Sugar Creek Ohio has been our favorite place to go to since 1984. We have furnished our whole house with their beautiful furniture, everything from dining room to bedroom. And I remember when Walnut Creek Cheese was that little building before they built the big store…the whole area is some of the most beautiful and peaceful place to be with all the rolling hills and back roads. If anyone is looking for a friendly relaxing place to visit, Holmes County is your destination! I’m anxious to see your video from your visit back home….i always enjoy them so much and I encourage others to visit there! 💘💘

[@andreadepriest3989]

Add sime hummus to your Greek bowls! My family loves those.

[@kimmerrou]

I agree, This Golden Hour is lovely. You both exude your love of Jesus in your daily lives. He shines through you in your talents, skills, and devotion in all you do. A true reflection that is authentic and draws us to Him through you. ✝️ I truly appreciated your Bible verse last week, Lynette. Greetings from Venice, FL. 👋

[@baf814]

I would love to try the haystack recipe. Need to cut it down for just me! For the Greek bowls, I would add some pitted Greek olives.

[@joycerapp2583]

Thanks for all the delicious dish ideas. So enjoy u videos and sharing

[@susanseifert925]

Lynette, when I saw the stack of sweet corn my taste buds went wild for Mexican sweet corn. Which leads me to ask if ever have tried it? OMG! It is a must😋🤤😋😋😋

[@StaciePfeiffer]

Haystacks are great! Have a great visit up here! :)

[@debraspringers2098]

I love fresh eggs the best! Thanks for the great recipes! The kids are growing up too fast!

[@eloiseireland1234]

Lynette , I just spent two days in Berlin/Walnut Creek. Beautiful country. I live 2 1/2 hours NW where its flat. I agree Walnut Creek foods are worth the purchase. Ee take cookers and bring back food. You have a beautiful family.

[@cindysandhu7281]

Hi Lynette. Thank you for this great video. I was wondering why you poke your bread before you bake them? Never have I seen that before. Your Greek bowls looked delicious, Feta cheese would have been another add in you could have put in. Everything looked so good!

[@tammyduff14]

Everything looked delicious! 💕we could use some prayers here in Vermont. Thank you and God bless.

[@janicecordy7425]

I really liked this video. I will actually be in Holmes Co first week in August. I live in nw Ohio. Everyone from my area goes to either shipshewana or Holmes Co area. I don't think I've been there since I was a kid. Hitting zinks first. My sister in law and I both sew, so we have to shop the fabric/quilt shops. Lol. Thanks for all the fun videos!!
