Homemade bread in one hour

I am definately going to try this! I wonder if you can use other types of flour in it? say rye or oat? Hmmmm!

Interesting insights here.

I did slice the shaped dough of my last batch and I like the way it turned out. Beautiful. I think I'll try adding moisture to the oven next time.

I, too, thought there was a huge amount of yeast in this recipe but it's really less than one yeast packet per loaf. Not bad. And for the time I save, I'll spend pennies more. No problem. I buy yeast in bulk vac packed block at Costco anyway and then divide it up into 1/2 pint jars and vacuum pack them for dry storage.

'Course, I know of an artisan bread that only calls for 1/2 tsp of yeast. It's a wonderful bread but it literally takes ALL DAY to rise.

I was told the recipe works fine without the mixer but, heck, if I've got one, I'm gonna use it. Soooo, if anyone wants to test this recipe out with out the stand mixer......do let us all know how it works out.

And, hmmmm. The description of the factory made bread....somehow makes me want to always make home baked. We recently had some store bought bread in the house - the expensive $4.50 a loaf stuff - with all the "sprinkles" on top. *shudders* It couldn't even touch the home made bread. I'm happy I'm making home baked a habit.

I've made this recipe twice now. The first was as written. The second I got jiggy with spices and flour variations. Both times it came out great. The house was exceptionally warm, so I cut the yeast in half the second time and it still came out great and just as fast. My family was super tickled by a ' quick yeast bread' and I like the idea that I can change my mind about whats for dinner and be able to give them fresh bread only an hour after I have finally decided. Thanks so much for sharing! This went straight to my recipe book after dinner

I made the 2 loaf recipe today by hand. No mixer. We really liked it. A nice, heavy loaf. A lot of mising and kneading for these old arthritic hands but my DH says it was very good. Thanks for the recipe.

I made the 2 loaf recipe and mixed it by hand because I forgot I don't have a dough hook. ::regular mixing thingys DO NOT WORK!!! :: My husband informed me that from now on, we'll be eating homemade bread, so I guess it was a hit!

Thank you so much for sharing the recipe! It was super easy!!! Even for me, who is a baking failure!

Aaaw, I'm glad your family like it. Perhaps your husband will suggest you buy a dough hook. My husband will clean the entire kitchen for me so I will make this bread.

I actually didn't mind the hand mixing. I like tactile things, so it's great for me! And saves power, blah, blah, environment, blah, blah...hahaha!

Heres the recipe that I use. You can mix the dough and save part in the frige for later in the week.

I like it cause of no sugar. Its called 5 minute a day bread
