Ingredients

2 pkgs. active dry yeast
1/8 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup warm water
2 tsp. salt
2 cups milk, scalded
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup butter
1 cup currants
1/4 cup sugar
6 1/2 cups Stone-Buhr unbleached whitebread flour

Instructions

In small bowl, dissolve yeast in the water; set aside. In large bowl, combine milk, butter, sugar, and salt; cool to lukewarm. Stir in yeast, eggs, and currants. Add about 3 cups of flour and beat until smooth. Add more flour, enough to make dough easy to handle.

Turn onto lightly floured board and knead until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover; let rise until doubled. Shape into 2 loaves and place in 9 x 5-inch greased pans. Cover and let rise until doubled.

Bake at 425°F for 40 minutes or until done. Turn out onto cooling rack.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.
