I’m 70 years old and have been trying to bake bread for years, and they all have failed!!! Just wanted to thank you for your video because I’m eating a delicious slice of bread I made with my own hands !! 💕
From what I know you can skip the flour. The sugar helps to feed the yeast so I’m not sure if skipping the additional sugar makes much of a difference, I’ve never tried it. There may be a difference in the rise, but overall I’m sure you will come out with a delicious loaf of bread. Would love to hear how it turns out without the added sugar! 😊
How nice of your neighbor to help you out with snow removal. You are a wonderful neighbor to reciprocate and send over a fresh loaf of bread and jar of jam! That is true kindness! What goes around, comes around! 😊
Thanks for the one loaf recipe! Most recipes are for two or more loaves, so this is really helpful. To make measuring your flour easier, try using your red measuring cup set (dry ingredients} instead of the Pyrex (which is typicallly for liquid ingredients}. To get an accurate measurement, just fill your 1 cup with flour and use a knife or spatula to remove the excess/level it off before adding to other ingredients. ❤
I am a man that lives by himself. My stable diet is sandwich and beans so I want to thank you for showing me how to make real bread I tried your recipe and it worked perfectly I want to thank you for showing me your recipe and I love 💗 you and God bless you
Thanks for this recipe -the bread looks very good. When you proof the yeast in water and sugar it doesn’t have to double in size - just get foamy on the top!
You are so lucky to have a great neighbor. I am sure he enjoyed that. It is true about helpful neighbors back home. We just lost a really good neighbor before Christmas. He was always cleaning our gutters and helping us out. He collapsed in his back yard from a heart attack at 61 years old. We miss him so much. I just brought his wife and daughter a loaf of homemade bread. I never made just one loaf, but I think I will now. I enjoy doing it, and it keeps me busy to pass the time between tasks. Thanks for the recipe.😊
I live in NS and this is so close to my Mothers' recipe being that the only difference she used margarine in the 1950s-60s. She made 8 to 10 loaves a week too like your Nan. I put all of your one loaf ingredients into my bread machine and it turned out wonderfully. The same taste and texture like I made it myself. Thank you for doing the work on the scaling down to that one loaf.
Thank you for the one loaf recipe, so many multi loaf recipes out there and I'm still trying to perfect my bread baking skills, you have a new subscriber too!!
I love your spirit of giving! I love to feed people, too! It's how I show my gratitude for their kindness to me! You are blessed to have such a kind neighbor, and he is blessed to have one in return!
Oh my gosh!! Great recipe!! AND when my husband was very ill (Cancer) our neighbor came and cleared our driveway with his plow on his truck!! My husband said.."that man deserves a loaf of homemade bread"!! I have since sold and moved and am making this recipe now. I have not made bread in about 10yrs..looking forward to the finale product. OH and my grandson's aunt is from NewFoundland!! I will look at your other video's also..Happy Baking!!
Thanks so much for watching, and for your comment! I hope you love the bread! I love having good neighbours. Makes me remember there is still so much kindness out there 😊 Enjoy!!
Looking forward to trying this in my breadmaker. And if you've ever shoveled snow, you know that a neighbour coming by with a snowblower is a welcome sight! And you showing up with a loaf of homemade bread and homemade jam will also be a welcome sight!
@@comehomecottage It came out GREAT ! I’ll be baking my own bread from now on , I refuse to pay $3.44 a loaf for Sunbeam bread ! Thank you so much for the video & recipe !!
loved the bread came out so soft - -and nice that your neighbors are such giving folk! our poor world could do with more "taking care of each other" as you and those around you seem to be doing -- applying the golden rule. blessings to you friend
❤just wanted to thank you for this bread recipe. I grew up on as small farm with my grandparents. Over the years her bread recipe was lost or somehow changed by my aunt. This bread tastes like my Grams recipe and I finally found a bread that tastes like hers. She used bake 10 or twelve loafs at a time. I would watch her bake bread in her farm kitchen. Even the smell of this bread baking takes me back to more kind and thoughtful time. Best regards to you and your family and thanks again.
Thank you for your kind comment. I’m so glad it helped you remember your Grams bread. My first video is a multiple loaf version (8 loaf) of this recipe if your are interested in trying that out 😊 They freeze great and taste amazing even after thawed. Thanks again for watching, and happy baking!
Love you were able to scale this down for people. The first step is really called activating the yeast (yeast is a living organism that is dormant until activated by the water and sugar is the food for the yeast), then you allow dough to rise, then right before you bake ,(second rise) is the "Proof" stage or some call final rise.
Every loaf of bread I’ve tried to make I have butchered 😂☹️, but I just watched your video and made a loaf and it’s the best bread I’ve ever had !! Thank you soooo much 🩷🩷
I am so happy to hear that! I was always so intimidated to start baking bread and I’m so happy that what I’ve learned can help others too. It’s such a blessing.
Hello! I came across your videos yesterday. I really enjoy how real you are and how you share/teach. I feel like I'm right there in the kitchen with you sipping coffee & kneading bread. 😊 I haven't had much success with yeast breads but I'm excited to try your one loaf recipe this week. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed week!
I use a shower cap over the bowl to keep drafts out, also the fermenting dough generates heat so that helps. I put it in the microwave to avoid drafts.
This is my first time to watch a video that you made. I think you are a very nice and thoughtful young woman. I am 74 and I just got a bread maker but I am not doing to well so far. I am going to give your bread a try. Thank you and God Bless you.
I usually bake my bread for 30 minutes and get a browner top. I think my stove is running hot at 350. Your loaf looks absolutely delicious! I use 11/2 cups of water with 3 cups of flour. Maybe we’re much drier here in Toronto, so I need more water. Love the addition of melted butter.
Thank you for sharing an easy recipe for one loaf! One tip: if you watch Richard Bertinet on kneading you can use a lot less flour with a bench scraper and the slap and fold method. This way your bread will not be as heavy but light and airy. I have about 5 of them in different sizes. I am anxious to try this recipe on my kitchen aid.
my husband and my family is from newfoundland, although ive never been there in my 31 years! his family from badger i believe. thanks for the video, weve made it twice and it was gone within the day!!
Cut a plastic lid in half to use as a bench scraper till you buy one. Really saves flour.and keeps dough from getting dry from too much flour added when kneading.
"Personal relationship with your dough". I get what you mean. I owned a dough mixer but when ever I'm making bread, I prefer to knead with my hands. Enjoyed watching your video, you're so down to earth. Happy New Year to you and your family. ❤❤❤
Hey there! This is awesome, that you made a great 1 loaf recipe video! Thanks!! Super cool- specialy after I had "complained" that the last recipe was way too much (4 loaves and rolls) lol Verykind of you to respond like this! I am looking forward to more recipes of you. It gives inspiraions to ry new things cuz I have to think hard sometimes on what to cook today lol Have a grea day and stay warm! Greetings from Germany :)
Haha I didn’t hear any complaining! Just requests that I was happy to follow through on. There were several people who mentioned they would prefer a one loaf recipe that would be easier to knead. Glad you enjoyed it!
Watch Bake With Jack. He has some fantastic tricks. He does not add flour even when his dough seems very wet. He is worth watching. Thanks for your transparency.
❤ I want to say thank you so much, I try sooooo many recipes and it never came out right but I tried yours this morning and I'm so proud of my self cause it's came out good ❤❤❤❤ And if you make pasta hey make a video.
You are doing great. Remember that you are very brave for doing TH-cam! Ignore negative comments. Thanks for the recipe! 😊😊😊. Use a spatula as a bench scraper.
I’ve been searching for years since my grandmother passed away to find her white bread recipe. This was so great and the closest I’ve ever come. Do you also have a brown bread/mollasses? :). Thanks for making my day with this recipe.
I'll definitely try this downsized version. With that said, when you make the large batch have you ever frozen the dough after shaping for the second rise?
I’ve never frozen the dough before but I know it can be done. I think just like you said, freeze it after the first rise. Don’t let it rise the second time, because as it thaws this will be considered the second rise.
I just found your channel today, looking for bread recipes. After watching a few of your videos, I noticed that you haven't posted in a year or more. You have such a calming voice and explain things so well. I also love listening to you tell your stories. Does this mean that you will no longer be posting videos? I will have watched all of your videos my tomorrow. It feels like when you are almost done reading a great book, and it is the last one in the series. Please tell me that life just got busy for you but that you'll be back at some point. Thank you for some great recipes and life ideas.
Thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately demands of life have kept me from keeping up with videos, but I do hope to continue with them! Thanks again.
I haven’t tested the double loaf recipe. You probably don’t need to double the yeast, just add another 1 1/4 teaspoon id say. (For reference, when I make my 6-8 loaf recipe I only triple the yeast.)
I Liked ,Saved and shared your video. Thank you for doing a video on a small loaf. I will use your other video when gifting 😊😊😊 again, I so appreciate your videos. My style, Homey, comforting, humble, just down to earth. I look at you and ask The Lord, why didn’t I have the confidence when I was a young girl to go without makeup 😊 I haven’t watched any except this video but I’m assuming that is your chose of living. Forgive me for being so personal. I’m 70 now and I go without makeup most of the time now. Much easier 😊Love how you blessed the gentleman with a loaf and went above and beyond with some delicious homemade jar of preserves ❤❤❤ Your bread looked delicious and amazing. Blessings from Monterey/Salinas Valley , Ca❤
Yes it works great. I just try to get as much air out before closing them. We eat them up pretty quick so they’re never usually in the freezer more than 3 months. If you have it in there longer you can use a freezer bag.
FYI, when measuring dry ingredients one ought to use the cups like the one you used to scoop out your flour. This is so you can level off the ingredient, whereas a wet ingredient needs the see-through measure to see that the ingred. is level at the measurement. Fortunately, bread making isn't as precise as say making a cake. Also, don't be so hard on yourself about where you stored your yeast. You live where it's pretty much cold year 'round. Most people live where it's cold 1/2 the time, so we do need to refrigerate --- in fact, I live in the tropics, so I m-u-s-t refrigerate, BUT my raising time is never as long! Thanks, I think I'll bake this o-n-e loaf in the toaster oven : ))
@@bonnietrant5252 it could be one of those items specific for the area. Bread making and baking is quite popular in my area so they have a good stock of them at our store. There might be something similar on Amazon
Èxperiment I only knead one loaf for 5 minutes. Two or three loaves will .need 10 ,12 minutes of kneading. 😮i let rise 30 min and shape and knead for bread pan. Start oven to preheat 30 min while bread rises 2nd time in pan. I bake 30 min at 400 fare heit Faster bake time when cooking dinner or for lunch. Dont be afraid to experiment. Divide bread to make hotdog buns or hamburger buns. Bake 20 minutes on baking sheet.
Thank you for cutting this recipe down to one loaf. The only question I have is that in the 7-8 loaf recipe there is 51/2 cups warm water you add after you add the melted butter and yeast mixture to the flour. This water is missing from your 1 loaf recipe.
Good observation! I initially planned for that as well but soon realized it only needs the water from the yeast mixture and it turns out perfectly with just that. Happy baking!
I can’t remember but I think this loaf was going to a neighbour, I didn’t want to cut it up. But the first video on my channel with the multiple loaves shows it all. Same loaf, just the multiple recipe 😊 Thanks for watching!
I’m sorry I had to ask what are your measurements for the flower? I am a blind person, and you said absolutely no measurements for the flower. You mentioned the sugar you mentioned the salt and that’s all you mentioned you didn’t mention anything else what in the world? I don’t like your recipe too much music. I do not understand why people who want to create Contant like yours have to put in music and other distracting noise in the middle of the recipes while they’re cooking. I’m having a hard time understanding your recipe. sorry, but could you maybe write a list down in comments here? I don’t care for the music and the distracting noise from this recipe like I state I am 100% blind and I am having a hard time following your directions because of the awful music and background sounds.
I'm not blind and I can't stand the music in videos either. A lot of potential here but there is no method in the description. The most important tool for anyone new to bread making is to get a thermometer. You can kill the yeast if the water is too hot and it won't activate if it is too cool. When your bread is done you can take the internal temperature so you don't under or over bake. The package of yeast gives the temperature of the water needed to activate. If I guess I usually am wrong. I found an old Tuperwear plastic tool that works like a bench scrapers. It works great for picking up the dough off the couter and for lifting out of the bowl. I put very hot water in a cake pan on the bottom rack of my oven so the bread can proof.
I noticed you are using a liquid measuring cup to measure out your flour. I was always taught that the glass is for liquids not a dry measure. Now saying that are the 2 cups in your recipe actually 2 cups or did you write the recipe using your glass measure. I just want to make sure I have all the correct measurements. Thanx for your Nans recipe.
The recipe is for proper measuring cups but I do use the liquid ones! They were all I had when I started out and I find they give me a really nice loaf so I just keep with it 😊 Depending on the humidity, weather, etc I sometimes have to add flour while kneading but that’s no problem. Thanks for watching!
I’m 70 years old and have been trying to bake bread for years, and they all have failed!!! Just wanted to thank you for your video because I’m eating a delicious slice of bread I made with my own hands !! 💕

There may be a difference in the rise, but overall I’m sure you will come out with a delicious loaf of bread. Would love to hear how it turns out without the added sugar! 😊
Mee too... Here the other thing.. proofing temp should be 110-112 that made a huge difference as well! 😉

If you have a putty knife around (used for drywall) it will work as a bench scraper until you get one, just make sure it's clean lol.
I finally bought one 😂 I don’t know what took me so long, it was only $5 lol What a difference it makes.
If you don’t have a bench scraper use a pancake turner.

An you use those bags to freeze the bread?
Yes it works great. I just try to get as much air out before closing them. We eat them up pretty quick so they’re never usually in the freezer more than 3 months.
If you have it in there longer you can use a freezer bag.
Will bread machine yeast work with this recipe?
I’ve never worked with it before so I’m not sure. I don’t see why not? Give it a try and let me know 😊

What kind of flour do you use,plain or bread flour?
I just use Robin Hood all purpose flour ☺️ Bread flour would work great, but where I live it’s much more costly.
@@comehomecottage Thank you so much.I love your recipe.
clear wrap keeps yeast really warm, not to warm
How long did you wait to check on the yeast ?
About 10 minutes should do
I don’t see an oven temperature and cooking time in the description. I must have missed it in the video. Can you please add it to the description?
I bake it at 350 for 40 minutes but I think my oven is a bit cool. Try yours at 30 minutes and assess it from there 😊 Happy baking!
How much flour did you use?thank you
How much flour .
2 cups. All amounts are listed below 😊
You seem so sweet thank you for sharing
What kind of flour did you use?
Robin Hood all purpose flour
Self rising,all purpose,bread flour ?
I use Robin Hood all purpose flour. I’m sure bread flour would make it better, but where I am it’s very expensive compared to all purpose.
Do I double the yeast for 2 loaves? Anyone please
For two loaves try using 3 or 3 1/2 teaspoon of yeast rather than doubling it. Happy baking!
Can this recipe be done in a bread machine
I think so! I’ve never used a bread machine but I don’t see why not?
Was that two cups of flour?
Yes 2 cups flour. The ingredients are in the description of you need to review at any time 😊
Èxperiment
I only knead one loaf for 5 minutes.
Two or three loaves will .need 10 ,12 minutes of kneading.
😮i let rise 30 min and shape and knead for bread pan.
Start oven to preheat 30 min while bread rises 2nd time in pan.
I bake 30 min at 400 fare heit
Faster bake time when cooking dinner or for lunch.
Dont be afraid to experiment.
Divide bread to make hotdog buns or hamburger buns.
Bake 20 minutes on baking sheet.
Thank you so much for downsizing the original recipe!
My pleasure 😊
Don't leave out the salt, thè bread nèeds it for flavour.
How ,much flour did you use
2 cups of all purpose flour
Maybe decrease the amount of water to 3/4 water for 2 cups of flour
I keep my yeast in the freezer.
You didn’t say how much flour did you use.
2 cups of flour. The ingredients are in the description if you want to see it all written out. Happy baking!
Thank you for cutting this recipe down to one loaf. The only question I have is that in the 7-8 loaf recipe there is 51/2 cups warm water you add after you add the melted butter and yeast mixture to the flour. This water is missing from your 1 loaf recipe.
Good observation! I initially planned for that as well but soon realized it only needs the water from the yeast mixture and it turns out perfectly with just that. Happy baking!
Can you double this recipe?
Yes you can. I haven’t tested the double recipe for this, but I’d say instead of doubling the yeast just do 3 or 3 1/2 teaspoon.
lordy - no idea what i did to the comment. none of that should be lined out! sorry
Haha no worries!
How much FLOUR??? You never say!!
2 cups of flour 😊
Great recipe. I find American videos so quaint.(archaic) Still using cups, quarts, pounds, and of course bunches!
Why didn’t you showed us the crumb? Most people cut the bread open and show the result 🤷🏻♀️
I can’t remember but I think this loaf was going to a neighbour, I didn’t want to cut it up. But the first video on my channel with the multiple loaves shows it all. Same loaf, just the multiple recipe 😊 Thanks for watching!
I’m sorry I had to ask what are your measurements for the flower? I am a blind person, and you said absolutely no measurements for the flower. You mentioned the sugar you mentioned the salt and that’s all you mentioned you didn’t mention anything else what in the world? I don’t like your recipe too much music. I do not understand why people who want to create Contant like yours have to put in music and other distracting noise in the middle of the recipes while they’re cooking. I’m having a hard time understanding your recipe. sorry, but could you maybe write a list down in comments here? I don’t care for the music and the distracting noise from this recipe like I state I am 100% blind and I am having a hard time following your directions because of the awful music and background sounds.
I'm not blind and I can't stand the music in videos either. A lot of potential here but there is no method in the description.
The most important tool for anyone new to bread making is to get a thermometer. You can kill the yeast if the water is too hot and it won't activate if it is too cool. When your bread is done you can take the internal temperature so you don't under or over bake. The package of yeast gives the temperature of the water needed to activate. If I guess I usually am wrong. I found an old Tuperwear plastic tool that works like a bench scrapers. It works great for picking up the dough off the couter and for lifting out of the bowl. I put very hot water in a cake pan on the bottom rack of my oven so the bread can proof.
I noticed you are using a liquid measuring cup to measure out your flour. I was always taught that the glass is for liquids not a dry measure. Now saying that are the 2 cups in your recipe actually 2 cups or did you write the recipe using your glass measure. I just want to make sure I have all the correct measurements. Thanx for your Nans recipe.
The recipe is for proper measuring cups but I do use the liquid ones! They were all I had when I started out and I find they give me a really nice loaf so I just keep with it 😊 Depending on the humidity, weather, etc I sometimes have to add flour while kneading but that’s no problem. Thanks for watching!
