Step 1

In a large bowl, start by mixing the following 2 cups of all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, sugar, baking powder, powdered milk, and salt. Then, add warm water. I recommend using warm milk for a softer dough.

Step 2

Mix them all together until it's smooth using your hands or a stand mixer. It'll be liquidly, but that's fine. Cover it, and let it sit in a warm place for 10-15 minutes until it becomes bubbly. You can cover it with a blanket or two.

Step 3

Once the 10 minutes are over, add 3 cups of all-purpose flour and the oil to the dough. Mix them well.

Step 4

Knead it for about 5-10 minutes. It will come together really quickly.

Step 5

Now, it's ready to use for anything your family asks for.

Step 6

Check notes for which doughs I recommend an eggwash for.
