Simple White Bread (with egg)

Alsace Gal — Sun, 09 Apr 2023 00:43:56 GMT

Early this morning I made this bread, it's pillowy spft, tender and easy. It's delicious! I shared half a loaf with my elderly neighbor across the street..they're having it tomorrow (Easter) with home made ham soup and beans.

I'm not very good at taking photos and I wanted to share what the loaf of bread I made looked like.

Do any of you remember Jenny Jones? It's from her site and YouTube channel.

I've included a link to her recipe.

I used KA unbleached bread flour.

Looks delicious! I will have to check out that recipe.

I just baked a pan of yeast rolls for our dinner tomorrow. I will make the other pan tomorrow morning. My house smells so good! Nothing like the fragrance of fresh baked bread!

I used my KitchenAid hand mixer with the dough hooks, to start mixing and kneading, it was easier than using my old and long gone KA stand mixer (I sold it).

You're right, the house smells wonderful.

I love making bread and have absolutely no luck with no knead bread.

Happy Easter!

@Leggett28

Thank you. It's delicious, I gave half the loaf to my neighbors because I didn't want to stop eating it and I knew they would appreciate it.

I'm making another loaf Easter morning....

I have a bread machine and I let it make the dough for me. But I always use the dough cycle and bake the bread or rolls in my oven. I like to have a loaf that has no paddle hole in the bottom!🤣

And of course rolls need to be shaped.

I take the easy route!😉😉

@4kitties
I used to have a Panasonic Bread maker, it also had holes where the paddle fit. It bit the dust a long time ago.

I like baking and using a scale for ingredients, when I made the bread this morning I wasn't expecting it to turn out, glad I was wrong!

It really feels like a soft pillow and the taste is wonderful.

Looks so good and how nice to share with your neighbor. Makes me think again about a bread maker. I would love a whole grain, salt free loaf.

@Still Raining

I don't have room for a bread maker.
I used half the salt in the recipe. I also use Kosher salt.

@Alsace Gal Looks so delicious...bread is my weakness, I would rather had a nice slice of bread and butter with jam instead of cake. So nice of you to share with your neighbor.

Thank you, my neighbors are both ill, cancer and cardio vascular disease and I knew this would be soft and easy to digest. I refer to them as elderly, however, I'm 72, not too much younger than they are.

Amazing how easily we adjust our thinking about age...I'm right behind you, I'll be 70 in a couple of weeks!

@happilyretiredgirl

I know it's habit forming.

Thank you, they're very nice, she met me at my garage and brought mini candies and chocolate eggs, she's always doing things like that. She had breast cancer and radiation which has been he..on her.

She's still kicking! She can run circles around me.

You're right and it's much better than the alternative.

@Alsace Gal That bread looks like perfection. Madonna was once asked what she denies herself, if there was anything she could have what would it be. She relied, "a slice of fresh bread with jam". (I'm paraphrasing...but you get the idea.). Homemade bread is life....just so good!

I like your bread pan too....thanks for the share, Happy Easter!

@phoenixbrd

Thank you. The bread pan is by Emile Henry, I purchased it at William Sonoma. Absolutely nothing sticks to it, I've had it for years, bread, meatloaf, cakes, etc have been baked in it.

Happy Easter!

@Alsace Gal

Your bread looks yummy. Love your Emile Henry pan.

DH makes bread, rolls, hamburger buns etc all the time.

He uses the bread machine to make the dough. He does not like the loaf a bread machine makes so he uses a few different pans.

'Thank you, I have a loaf in the oven.

The right pan makes all the difference. You're fortunate to have a hubby who loves to bake!

Happy Easter!
