Sounds great, but the ingredient list is missing.
They are listed in the recipe card just a bit further down in the post.
I am high Altitude. So need to adjust.
Also I prefer to mix and rise in machine, take out and bake in my oven. Any suggestions on time temp?
Could I substitute some WW flour in the mix? We prefer grainy bread to all white.
Thanks much.
Is this recipe for a 2 lb loaf? TIA
What size bread does this make?
Just guessing this is a 2lb loaf ? I just added all the ingredients and it didn’t say so fingers crossed!
@Angie, 3 cups of bread flour usually means 1 1/2 lb loaf.
Is this for a 2lb loaf?
I just made this bread and I did use the 2lb option as most recipes with this much flour is a bigger loaf. Its wonderful and definitely being saved for the future! The only hiccup I had was that it collapsed for some strange reason but that very well may have been from me prepping in on it when I shouldn’t have! Over all 10/10 great recipe!
