Homemade Bread - I Did It!

Posted by with 3 comments | in , ,
Back in October I had mentioned I wanted to learn how to make my mom's bread.  Well, at Christmas - I got the KitchenAid I so desperately wanted, and just this weekend I finally made my first loaf of bread!

I'll share with you this experience, in pictures!

After mixing all the ingredients in my lovely Kitchen Aid - I got to the best part... kneading!







Then it has to rise, not once








  but twice


 into the oven....


 

mmm yum!

I had halved the recipe I used b/c I wasn't sure how much it would make - next time I'll use the whole recipe and put a bit more dough in each pan.
