I stumbled on the recipe posted by 'Alan' in another thread. It was
wonderful.

Alan, if you are reading, know that I have really been struggling with this
bread baking thing. I was so pleased with your recipe, though.

I have a mission for Thanksgiving to have two or three dozen small mini
loaves of bread to go on the tables. Therefore, I followed your
instructions up until the end. I made a rectangle and subdivided it into 5
small rectangles and made smaller loaves.

The first two that I baked, were not really pretty. They were dusty and dry
looking at the top and I think I overcooked them. The second two, I
immediately placed a little butter on them when coming out of the oven.
They were still beautiful after they cooled for an hour. The only thing I
might do differently the next time is make the closest end of the rectangle
a tad smaller so they don't poof out in the middle of the loaf.

Thanks for posting a recipe even I could make.

Have you ever rolled the loaves with some sort of filling or another? I was
thinking Pesto would be nice or even some cinnamon and sugar for a breakfast
treat. I hate to tamper with perfection, though!
