Any good bread recipes for a yeast virgin?

What kind of bread are you thinking of baking?

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

I do like the shelf stable idea of this. I just always use the 1tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice for every 1 cup of milk

Which I do too... but for people that don't keep milk at home (or only have non fat) the powdered buttermilk is awesome because you only need water!

Personally I like the clean virgins for sacrifice...the yeasty ones explode in the oven

My father is a saint! Or - he's dead inside. LMAO!

I had two and my older sister was a handful. I am sure your 7 were much better behaved. She had the voice of an angel, we sang in the choir together.

I'm just wanting a good white bread to eat with butter. Something just to get past my initial fear of yeast. I was looking at this from King Arthur

My sisters and I were anything but angels. Thinking about it now, I have no idea how he handled us. My mother on the other hand, blames us for her gray hair and wrinkles.

That is a PERFECT one to start with!!!
my best advice is to weigh the flour - don't go by cups

Don't be scared of yeast... especially the instant stuff - make sure your water isn't *too* hot and you'll be golden!

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

Mmmmm, cinnamon rolls.

We did homemade cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning
I don't think they'll ever let me NOT make them again

Some will disagree but I like King Arthur. Funny, I did work for Pillsbury and other bakers on material handling and automation projects. They weighed everything. My favorite place to hang out was the test kitchen.

Saving to try too! I’ve made bread once - not sure why I don’t try again - it was if I do say so myself beautiful.

I think, sometimes anyway, that larger familie's children learn how to cope and get along and end up being better people. Look at you!

Always weigh. The scale doesn't lie no matter what my mom said. Also...yeasts are pretty much basic white girls....they like to eat and swim but not get too hot or cold.

Well I am a dude and definitely not going to be baking anything plus the mess I would be making in the kitchen.. no one needs that kinda trauma in their life.. I will just go fire up the grill and cook some meat to place on the bread
