March Recipe - Sarah's Homemade Bread


Like Sarah's pizza dough selection and Anne's gnocchi, this recipe proved to me that some things are not has hard as they seem.  Baking homemade bread seems incredibly intimidating for some reason, but this recipe proved it can be quite easy.

I made the dough on Sunday:


Making the dough probably took two minutes or less.  I stirred by hand because I could not find the dough attachment for the Cuisinart.   It was easy!  I put it in the fridge and didn't bake it until Tuesday night.


I cut the recipe in half, so ended up with two small loaves.  Initially, I was going to make one larger loaf, but decided to go with two.  I liked the size, I just wish I had waited to bake the second loaf, as it's now in the freezer.

They came out beautifully, if I do say so myself:


Next time, I will try a different flour.  I used white APF and would like to see how a whole wheat would work.  Don't get me wrong though, hot white bread out of the oven with some good butter is delicious!
