HOME-BAKED BREAD 
1 c. warm milk (115 degrees)
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. flour
1 pkg. yeast
1 egg, beaten
1/4 c. melted shortening
1 1/2 c. flour
2-2 1/2 c. flour

Use a large bowl and keep dough soft and sticky. Mix together milk, sugar, salt and 1 teaspoon flour. Add yeast, stir. Stir in egg and shortening. Add 1 1/2 cups flour and stir with spoon. Add 2-2 1/2 cups more flour, kneading over with hands until the flour is mixed to a sticky dough.

Take bread out of the bowl and grease the bowl and let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours. Take the dough and roll into small bun-size balls. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet or 2 round pans. Place in preheated 350 degree oven. Bake 20-25 minutes until lightly browned.
