Almost. My grandmother's bread recipe is very similar to the Amish recipe except it uses shortening instead of veggie oil, a little more flour and a little less sugar. It makes three loaves so I made two and used the third for pizza dough.

I'd post the recipe but it is a work in progress. The handwritten recipe has a lot of details missing, like oven temp! Once I get consistent results I'll post it for those interested.

That pizza looks GREAT. I love homemade pizza..My friend Gary made pizza all the time. He even built a oven out back just for that..Still miss him..
 
That loaf looks good enough to me.

Made rolls not long ago. Came out pretty good. Made a couple of loaves the other night. They tasted great but the shape wasn't quite right. It looks like they didn't rise in the pan on the ends. Any advice?[/quote]
I love imperfect rolls and loaves.  Just proves you made them yourself! 
 
Smokesufer that loaf looks great to me. The loafs usually rise more in the middle for some reason...Glad you are enjoying the bread !
 
I am making this bread today . Ive been on a sourdough kick for the past 6 months...
 
So I didn't realize that the flour container was not bread flour...  the ones on the left.    Not stopped by failure, I awoke the wife and asked which container the bread flour was and those are on the right.   They were a hit at Easter dinner and now I have none... guess I get to make more!    So easy and tasty -thanks Roller

We had kids come by this year as a fundraiser for their school and we bought something called Cinnabon Bites.  It was basically little balls of sweet dough rolled in butter and cinnamon sugar with icing on top  Since the Amish Bread recipe makes more dough than she can use in her cinnamon rolls, she's going to use the extra to make cinnamon bites.  Pics to follow.  There are pics from the last year or two in previous posts on this thread.
