Ingredients
  

  • 5 Cups Flour (High Grade Baking, Bread flour)
  • ¼ Cup Canola oil
  • ½ Tsp Salt
  • ¼ Cup Suger You can use Brown suger, it will change the taste a little (But it is nice!)

  • Place all the ingredience in the mixing bowl

  • Add Water then leave the mixer on a low speed for 5 mins then turn it up a little for a further 10 mins
  • Take the dough out of the mixer and leave on the bench for 5 mins (Make sure you sprinkle a little flour on the bench first!)
  • Mould the dough for a few minutes and shape to fit in you dish
  • Spray the inside of you dish with Canola Oil, then slice 3 fine cuts across the top of your bread then place your dough in the your bread dish. At this point you could spray water on the top of your dough then add poppy sead or what ever you like? (Be cautIous of cheese)
