Who among us doesn’t love a fresh piece of warm bread, slathered in butter or jam. I myself could probably sit down and eat a loaf of fresh bread in one day, though I know I’d stop myself from that temptation. While hearty bread from a good bakery is quite delicious, to me there’s nothing quite as tasty as homemade bread when I put aside the time to make a loaf or two. I have a variety of pans for just such a purpose, including some really neat mini loaf pans as well as a great French Bread Pan that I’ve used for years.
I love the classic style and the great results I get when I make bread in my clay bread baker – the bread always comes out with a wonderful crispy golden crust. I actually have bought quite a few of these pans over the years to give as gifts to friends and family at the holidays or as a housewarming present. The gift is always a big hit since it’s so unique and very useful too. So now I’ve gotten quite a few people hooked on making their own breads and we love sharing our recipes and most of all enjoying the breads.
