The inaugural recipe was a humble one, "White Loaves". Yep, plain white bread.
It was my first time baking a loaf of yeast bread. I decided to bake half as a loaf and half as cinnamon rolls. I wish I'd gone with two loaves because a) this bread was a little heavy for cinnamon rolls and b) it was perfect for a wonderfully hearty piece of bread. Perfect with a slathering of butter and maybe a little better as toast... slathered with butter.
Great first recipe! I'm definitely a fan and will make this again.
If you'd like to join the fun, be sure to stop by the Tuesdays with Dorie blog and check out "The Rules". For the recipe, click on the link in the second paragraph. See you in two weeks!

All of your baking is beautiful! If you bake the bread again, try using less flour. The recipe is on the dry side (for bread), which is why it's pretty dense. Great pictures! ~Piebird
Your loaf turned out great! I can't believe youve never made one.
i want those cinnamon rolls in the background! yum!
Beautiful & don't think we didn't notice those amazing looking cinnamon rolls in the background...
Thanks for letting me know that you found the bread to b too heavy for cinnamon rolls. Very good to know!! Good to be baking again with everyone.
Good job on completing TWD, and good luck for BWJ. THe bread looks great :)
Darn it. Now I'm craving fresh, homemade cinnamon rolls!
