It looks good. I just bought some flour yesterday and hope to make bread soonish. I'll try to remember you have a quick recipe here.
ReplyDeleteWow. First of all, the scent of bread baking is one of the pleasures on earth! Secondly, homemade in an hour's time? Incredible.
ReplyDeleteI love a slice of warm bread. This sounds delicious.
ReplyDeleteI have never been a yeast baker....but I think I could do this.
ReplyDeleteEasy and delicious are two wins!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Friend! I will be giving this a try tomorrow! What size loaf pans do you use?
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I never seem to have fast-rising yeast. I wonder how much extra time it would take for regular yeast? Guess I just need to get to Publix! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI thought I left a comment earlier but I think I neglected to click a button. :) Guess my not blogging has caught up with me. :) I would like to try this out tomorrow but am wondering what size loaf pans you use.
ReplyDeletePerfect timing. I was regretting ditching the bread maker the other day and was looking for a recipe to make without it. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteMari this looks wonderful. Have you seen those silicone pans that are like big bowls that latch at the top? It's called the Lekue Silicone Bread Maker. You make the whole thing in that one bowl, and bake it in there too. I wonder if this recipe would do well in a contraption such as that. I shall have to try it and see. But first I'd better buy one of the contraptions. Meanwhile I will copy this recipe. xoxo
