What size are the loaf pans?
Hi Heather, our pans are 8.5 x 4.5 x 2 inch, but it doesn’t matter much the pan size.
So I used active dry yeast and not instant. I know your recipe didn’t specify which, Should I wait longer then you called for to rise?
Hi Lexi, it probably won’t greatly affect the rise time (I’d still watch it and not adhere strictly to a time because lots of factors can affect rise time), but you will want to mix it with the water and sweetener and let it sit for a few minutes before adding the rest of the ingredients.
Has anyone tried making pizza dough?
Do you have a recipe that uses cup measurements instead of grams?
Hello,
Measuing flour by weight is usually the best bet, but if you don’t have a kitchen scale, it would be about 11 cups of flour. Make sure to fluff your flour before measuring. Hope that helps.
What type of yeast? Dry, active, rapid rise (I’m guessing?)? Sorry, new to this without sourdough starter (family doesn’t like the sour taste, ugh).
Hi J, active dry or instant will work. If you’re using active dry, just mix it with the water and sweetener and give it a few minutes to prove before adding the flour and salt. That is less necessary with instant.
Hey- what type of yeast do you recommend? Brand? Active? Dry? Thanks!!!
I’m switching from a sourdough starter and I’ve never made anything else (new at it all though)!!
Hi Bekah, Whatever you have will work. If it’s active dry, just make sure you give it time to prove before adding the flour. That will be less necessary with instant.
Great bread recipe! My kids love it! I make 3 large loafs instead of 4. Very delicious and moist!
Help. Have you tried this in a bread machine? I’m hoping to mill, measure and press go.
Hello TIna,
We have not tried this recipe with a bread machine. You could give it a go, but finding a bread machine-specific recipe is may be a better bet.
