Sometimes my bread comes out pretty good, and sometimes it has small issues. For instance, my oatmeal bread from yesterday. The first slice looked and tasted fine…but then this morning, when I sliced a few more servings, I noticed the crumb was a little too crumbly and the crust was coming unattached. I have had [...]

Transitional Whole Wheat Oatmeal Bread Recipe
My DH asked me if next time, I could make a “whiter” bread for him, so this “transitional” bread recipe is for my wonderful dear husband. Even though it’s not 100% whole grain, it still offers a good amount of fiber! Inspired by the Oatmeal Bread recipe found on King Arthur Flour’s web site.
100% Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread
IMPORTANT: I had originally calculated the nutritional data incorrectly. It’s been updated! I had three over-ripe bananas, and of course I thought of baking some delicious banana bread!

Nancy Silverton’s Breads – Book Review
A commenter on the Fresh Loaf web site mentioned the book Nancy Silverton’s Breads from the La Brea Bakery: Recipes for the Connoisseur so I borrowed it from the library.

Oh my, I baked bread this afternoon, and I am in love with this recipe! I couldn’t wait, I had to slice a piece! It was heaven. A big ole slice of heaven! I used the same recipe as the previous 100% Whole Wheat with Rosemary Bread, except that I swapped the rosemary for some [...]
Whole Grain Wheat, Rye, Oat Bread with Caraway Seeds
Oh gosh, have I mentioned how much I love the smell of caraway seeds. I bought a bag at Penzey’s yesterday, and they smell heavenly. I wanted to use them in bread, but I needed to find a 100% whole grain bread, as so many rye bread recipes are made with white flour. I found [...]
