Yeah, bad at blogging. School & a crazy baby will do that for you. Not that anyone is actually reading this, but it's really helpful to remember what I've tried, because honestly, I forget.
A few weeks ago we were making meatballs for dinner. Wouldn't it be lovely to have some garlic bread to go with that? Yeah, it would. After making, browning, & baking the meatballs I really didn't have the energy (or time) to bake a loaf of bread. I dug through the cabinets & came upon this box of "Favorite Sandwich Bread Mix" from Gluten Free Pantry that I had bought. I thought I'd give it a go.
Well shucks, it really doesn't suck! And it couldn't be easier. Add some warm water (I temp to about 112 degrees), melted butter & eggs. Throw it all in the mixer with the enclosed yeast packet, mix for 3 minutes and you're good to go! Today I timed it: 8 minutes to prepare for rising. I place it in a warm oven to rise for 40 minutes & bake for 30.
It's convenient because it's sold at almost all of my local grocery stores for approximately $4.39. We've mostly used it for garlic bread and grilled sandwiches, but it's always worked well for french toast- even the overnight baked french toast recipes.
I've been meaning to try more sandwich-type bread recipes, but for now, this mix works well for us.
