Homemade Bread Recipe

I looked through a lot of homemade bread recipes and this one was my favorite. It yields two loaves. I give credit to my daughter's health class for this recipe.. I try to make four at a time (double this recipe) and freeze the bread we aren't eating. So far we are only eating two loaves a week so I am only making it twice a month.
