Looks good. Try collecting all the crumbs after slicing into a zip bag (keep in freezer), and when you need a crumb topping for something you will have it. Toss in a few spices and you have breading or topping or whatever you need. Works very well to add to meatloaf, meatballs, etc….
Thank you, Lisa.🌅 I'm always happy to hear your happiness. You're a very dear heart. Nothing quite like fresh honemade bread! Since there's only 2 of us here now, one loaf is enough. Of course, it can always be frozen. I did that often when the "kids" were home. Even our son still makes his own bread. It's so hot here in FL, we keep our bread in the frig (double-wrapoed). Most is used for toast. Like you, I gave up using an electric mixer, & just use my hands, which I also enjoy. That long knead is definitely a great tip for good slicing loaves...developing the gluten gives the dough structure to hold up to spreads, slicing & handling, etc., & a very nice "chew". Kudos to you for the great experimentation & sharing what you've learned! It's a benefit, always 💜 Love you. (Hint: when the jug of milk is freshly opened, remove what you need for baking into a jar (can heat in micro for bread), then Harlan can drink the rest, lolol. Catch ya on the next video🥰 God's continued blessings on you all.
You deserve a huge pat on the back for seeking ways to avoid eating Ultra Processed foods! Just checking out the ingredients listed on the supermarket bread wrapper will show up products that you'd never find in a food cupboard, let alone a food store! My neighbour here in France is a professional bread baker (boulanger) with his own bakery (boulangerie), and is happy to tell me (often!) that your 'daily bread' is made from only 4 ingredients - flour, yeast, salt and water - unless you are making brioche. He offers the following helpful suggestions: + only use strong bread flour as it has far more gluten and will stretch (rise) better + you only need 9 grams (2 tsps) yeast (fresh yeast is preferable) to raise 1 kilo (8 cups) flour + knead, by hand or machine, until temp of dough reaches 24C (75F) internally + 2nd proving is best done overnight in a fridge (commercially) + slash your bread with a lame just before baking, not before 2nd proving + bake at 220C (450F) + for a good crust, add a metal container to the bottom of oven filled with boiling water + a hand-shaped loaf (not baked in a tin) is better finished with a dusting of flour before slashing As Lisa demonstrated, a lame (blade) is traditionally used to put a decorative cut to the top of a loaf of bread. It is an old fashioned razor blade that is held in a special handle that bends the blade into a slight curve. Apologies for such a lengthy post!
Tried making the water version this monring. I was concerned that my morning would be all and only about making bread, but I preheated the convection oven to 100 degrees, turned it off, and let the dough rise there. I guess I got started between six and six-thlrty. The bread was out of the oven and cooling by 9:00 am. !!! This is now our go to. My husband gave it a thumbs up flaovr and texrure-wise. I can hardly wait to try doing the fancy sandwich buns you illustrated in another video. Thank you !
Those look fabulous! I’m so glad you use tallow! I only have lard so, I’m going to try that. You’re right, lard & tallow are much healthier than the processed oils at stores! One thing I’ve found to solve the no- milk 🎉problem is to buy Fair Life whole milk. It’s ultra pasteurized so it has a 3-4 week shelf life! It’s expensive but, not when you’re NOT a milk drinker who only needs it for cooking! That way, I don’t have to buy a a pint/quart & end up wasting half of it!😩 Maybe it would help you if you bought it & told Harlan that it is just for cooking😂🤷♂️ Thank you for another great video! I’m so glad I found your channel ❤️🙏❤️
I stopped buying my bread at the store last year when I found out how unhealthy it was, even the birds wouldn't take it but the home made bread disappear's in no time. I don't hand knead my husband bought me a Hausler nova spiral mixer that does a great job and I get beautiful window pane dough every time . Your bread turned out beautiful.
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead I've made buns before and they turned out awesome but I can't find the recipe I used. If I try yours out on them before you do I'll let ya know how they turn out.
Don’t laugh, but watching you make bread is very relaxing. 🙂
I just started making bread. My family asked for cinnamon bread, so yesterday I made five loaves. The best bread I’ve made so far.

I love that if you don't have milk or eggs you can still make bread.
Yay! Thanks so much- I will indeed try the new one with milk & egg& I love the cut down version of only one loaf at a time 💖
I just made two loaves today. Absolutely wonderful recipes. Thank you. 😊
You're so welcome!

Great instructions! Thanks!
Thanks for the recipe and great demonstration!
An electric bread knife works wonderful with fresh bread cutting.

I'm SO GLAD yall love the bread!! Before I started I always thought it would be so time consuming too, but surprisingly it's really not :)

I would Absolutely have to put butter on both of those loaves straight out of the oven.😊
I can smell them!!❤
In high school my chemistry project was yeast; I made rolls for my class...brought them in hot and buttered. Finally got an A in chemistry. 😇

Yum!
i made your cinnamon bread once it was awesome ready to make it again just hoping i can find your recipe :) thanks
YUM!
Yummy!
Yummo
This makes me hungry for hot baked bread.
Oh, yeah, I meant to say that brushing milk on your dough right before baking will give you a soft crust!❤
Did you say that the bread pans are called Pioneer Woman? I will definitely try the one with egg, thank you for sharing
Yes :) we got them at Wal-Mart
Great video. What is that tool kit that you used?
It's a bread lame :) a fine blade that cuts the top :)
Have you used the milk/egg recipe to make hamburger buns with yet? I would think it would work well for those?
not yet, but this gives me ideas!!! Thanks so much
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead I've made buns before and they turned out awesome but I can't find the recipe I used. If I try yours out on them before you do I'll let ya know how they turn out.
Lisa does it matter which brand of Flour we use?
Nope, it shouldn't matter although wheat flour may need more water
May I ask what size is your bread pan?😊
Can you please, please do the pull apart garlic bread you had in the other video. 🙏🏻
Hey Stacey, I've put that on my todo video list for ya!
@@TheQuiltmakerHomestead thank you sooooo much, I’m foaming at the mouth with all the food videos. 😂
