Mini Bread Loaf Recipe
This was the first bread loaf I made and it is so easy and fun! In just 2 and a half hours you can make a delicious warm loaf that feeds 8. It pairs well with honey & butter, jam, as a sandwich, or plain. My family ate this loaf up within minutes! Being British, I think this bread is perfect for afternoon tea. Load some homemade butter and jam on top and it’s decadent and elegant!
