  4. Let it rise: Cover with a towel and let it rise in a warm spot for about 20 minutes or until doubled in size.
  5. Shape loaves: Divide dough into two parts and place each in greased loaf pans.
  6. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Cool: Allow to cool in pans for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
