Ingredients:  
1 cup milk
½ cup shortening
4 cups sifted flour, divided
⅓ cup sugar
2 tsp. salt
2 packages active dry yeast
3 eggs
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 10 minutes before Sally Lunn is ready to be baked. Grease a 10-inch tube cake pan or bundt pan.

Heat the milk, shortening, and ¼ cup water until very warm - about 120 degrees. Shortening does not need to melt. Blend 1⅓ cups flour, the sugar, salt, and dry yeast in a large mixing bowl. Blend warm liquids into flour mixture. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed about 2 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. Gradually add ⅔ cup of the remaining flour and the eggs and beat at high speed for 2 minutes. Add the remaining flour and mix well. Batter will be thick, but not stiff. Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until double in bulk - about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Beat dough down with a spatula or at lowest speed on an electric mixer and turn into a prepared pan. Cover and let rise again until increased in bulk one-third to one-half -- about 30 minutes.

Bake 40-50 minutes at 350 degrees. Run knife around the center and outer edges of the bread and turn onto a plate to cool.

Makes one loaf.
