Day 28.
Tomorrow, I'm going to the dentist, and if all goes well, I'll be having a lot of work done. I will try to post a recipe, but be patient with me if I can't. I may very well be eating baby food bananas tomorrow. :)
Meanwhile, here's a quick bread machine recipe that I love to use on busy nights when I need sandwiches for the next day. Bread machines can be purchased for pennies on the dollar at any thrift shop near you. I don't use mine much anymore. I find it more economical to make bread by hand. However, it's a great time saving tool and a good way to introduce yourself to homemade bread. I bought my bread machine for $5 at a thrift store. Keep an eye out for one for your own kitchen.
Buttermilk Bread Machine Bread
makes 1 1/2 lb loaf
Ingredients:
- 1 cup warm buttermilk
- 2 Tbsp butter, cut into small pieces
- 3 Tbsp honey or agave nectar
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 3 cups bread flour
- 1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
How it's Done:
- Add all ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer. Set to regular light loaf and walk away.
- Wait until the loaf is cool to slice it, or else it will fall apart.

Was wondering how to adapt this recipe to make by hand--don't own a bread machine. Thanks
Combine the wet ingredients in a large bowl. Add the yeast. Add the rest of the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until stiff. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth, maybe 8 minutes? Then bake, at about 375, for 30 minutes to 45 minutes, until the bread sounds hollow when you tap the bottom. Hope that helps!
