OT. Karen I got your message!
The few times I've tried to make "real" bread other than quick breads or biscuits I could never get the yeast temp right. This was so easy!!! Do you sift your flour? After I had mine all mixed I was reading some of the other reviews and they recommended sifting. Mine was great as it was. But I am going to venture out and try some of the other suggestions. Have you ever tried making it in muffin tins or making small rolls? Or I wonder if it would look like an "artisan" loaf just rounded and baked on a cookie sheet. Might end up looking like a cookie tho as it is pretty "free form." Thankts again. Warning: to those who dare. . . this is so easy and so good!

Oh HECK no do I sift! I don't even own a sifter...lol
I did make them in a muffin pan once and they were bought by our local hockey league. Don't go there, my friend, it's not pretty. I have put diced green chiles and cheese in the batter with good results. I'm really going to try the onions and cheese the next time. Perhaps add some basil and Rosemary??? That would give it the artisan taste without taking it out of the loaf pan shape. I don't think it would hold up.
