In a large bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy and bubbly.

Stir in the salt and vegetable oil, followed by the flour, one cup at a time, until the mixture forms a soft dough.

Lightly flour your counter and turn your dough out onto it. Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.

Place your dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size, around 1-2 hours.

Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Shape it into a loaf and place it in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Cover again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
