Home made Bread
I love the smell the smell of warm bread as it comes out of the oven. So I asked friends and family for recipes and this one hit the nail.

All it takes is a bit of patience and

  • 1 1/2 to 2 Cups of Water
  • 4 x Cups of Flour (Not self raising flour)
  • 1 tablespoon table salt
  • 1 tablespoon of  baking powder
  • 1 desert spoon of Sugar
  • 1 small packet of instant yeast

Steps to follow

  1. Mix the Flour, Salt, Sugar and Baking Powder into a bowl.
  2. Add the packet of instant yeast.
  3. 3. Start adding the water. Only add a little at a time. Make sure that the dough is firm and does not become to sloppy
  4. Let the dough rest untill it has natrually expanded to twice it's volume, so make sure you use a big enough mixing bowl.
  5. Split the dough into 2 parts and place in your bread pan.
  6. Bake for around 30 min's at 180 degrees.
  7. Remove your bread and let it cool down.

Bonus tip: If you want your home made bread to stay fresher for longer place it in a brown paper bag.
