Estimated cost uses current researched retail pricing and will vary by store, brand, and date.
For best quality, store the dry mix in the freezer up to 6 months in an airtight bag.
Baked bread is best used within 2 to 3 days at room temperature or frozen up to 3 months.

    • how long do you bake it? what size pan? would love the final version of this recipe!!

      It’s a Bread Machine Recipe- you bake it in the pan that comes in your bread machine.

      If you have a 1 1/2 pound machine you follow the directions for the 1 1/2 pound loaf. if you have a 2 Pound machine, you follow the directions for a 2 pound loaf.

      You bake it according to the directions on the machine, like the recipe says. If you want a light loaf, use the Light loaf setting, if you want a Dark loaf, you use the Dark loaf setting.
