Adventures in Baking!

For about a month now, we have been making our own bread! It is partly out of necessity, but mainly because it's cheap and easy! Ok...I'll come clean, we use the frozen bread dough...but we still have to let it raise and bake it!
Todays loaf was a whopper! No joke, it wouldn't fit in any of the bags, so we had to cut it in half and eat a few slices to get it into the 2 bags!!! Here is the loaf next to 2/3 of the previously baked loaf! (Even though it is in a Sara Lee bag, we did bake it ourselves!)
Done to perfection!

Great loaf of bread! I am an industrial baker and we have a few of these come through the line once in while. We just laugh! It is always a double loaf where 2 loaves get in in one pan. Looks here, like you made a miscalculation on the yeast. Still good to eat if there are no large holes in loaf. Keep trying!!!

No doubt that bread was better than Sara Lee! I prefer homemade (frozen still counts) bread anyways! Plain and warm, fresh out of the oven, mmmm!
