Kathi in Nevada, Ohio, in the 8/31 newsletter is looking for a recipe to make a loaf of round bread. Kathi, you can form most yeast breads into a ball, grease an 8? round cake pan, and bake @ 350?F for about 30 minutes. The one below is truly one of my favorites, both bought and home made!

Kings Hawaiian Bread

6 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3 eggs
1 cup pineapple juice
1 cup water
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 packages yeast
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine
1/2 cup flour

Beat eggs; add pineapple juice, water, sugar, ginger, vanilla extract and melted butter or margarine. Put 3 cups of the flour in large mixing bowl. Add egg mixture and stir until well mixed. Sprinkle in yeast, 1 package at a time, mixing well. Gradually add remaining 3 cups of flour. Batter will be hard to mix with spoon. You may have to use your hands. Make sure it is mixed well. Leave batter in bowl and cover with cloth and place in warm place. Let rise for 1 hour.

Remove from bowl and knead in the 1/2 cup flour. Knead about 10 times. Divide into 3 equal parts and place in well-greased round cake pans. Cover and place in warm place and let rise again, for l hour.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes
