Bread Baking Goddess

Why bread? Well, in my house, we go through a lot of it. Most of the stuff in the grocery stores isn't very good. And good bread is super expensive (after all, most bread is flour, yeast, salt and water). Plus I love to bake. But I can't bake sweets all of the time since that wouldn't be a very healthy decision. So making homemade bread lets me bake, and feeds my family in healthful ways while saving money!

I am trying to challenge myself this year to bake a different loaf of bread every week. So 52 different recipes by the end of the year. I'm a little behind, of course...that is how my life runs at this point. But this resolution didn't come to me until mid January. I'll share some of my other baking adventures along the way as well. I'm making this my spot to share the delicious things that I bake up in my kitchen. I'm not a professional (but wish I was).

I will post some of the recipes when I feel that I am not infringing on any copy righted material. I will always post where I found the recipe just in case someone wants to make bread (or any other delicious goodie) too.

Perfect Crumb

I'm starting with a recipe that I've actually made a hundred times (cheating, I know, but it is my favorite). Regular old white bread. Delicious. Easy to rise. Perfect Grilled Cheese. Perfect Hole In The Toast. Perfect Sandwich. Perfect. I'll make other white breads I'm sure. But this recipe is easy and quick. And it is my Gold Standard. It is adapted from Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes A Day, my favorite bread book because it fits with my life so well.
