This is probably the most dangerous thing I’ve made in a loooooooooong time. See, the reason I never make bread is because it’s always so involved. It actually requires work. And I kind of really love the whole romantic aspect of kneading the dough and making a starter and so on, but the reality is that I don’t want to take the time to do all of that.
It’s a good thing that I was born when I was. My laziness is totally warranted, right?
Laurie, what are you doing to me? I have no chance of not eating a loaf a day for the rest of my life. Forever and ever AMEN.
I really can’t recommend this recipe enough; it’s the simplest one EVER for bread that tastes amazing. And now there’s no excuse to not make French bread pizzas, panini, fancy sandwiches and toast all from scratch.
I have this one bookmarked from Simply Scratch, can’t wait to try it, especially with your rave review 🙂
Tragic.
Last night…I put all the stuff together and covered with damp cloth to wait on it to rise….and then I forgot about it and left it sitting on the counter ALL NIGHT….this morning, it had risen but I was scared it would be gross from being out all night so i tossed it…and it was my last yeast packet…soooooooooooooooooooooooo sad….
I saw the same recipe and book marked it. I’m glad it turned out. I can’t wait to make it.
Haha! I made that exact same bread using the same recipe last night! And it IS fabulous. I have big, big plans for it to become Cuban and Croque Monsieur sandwiches.
So dangerous! I would eat the whole loaf!
Oh yummy! Great looking French bread! Going to check out Laurie’s recipe now…
Mmmm, if I start driving now, will the bread still be warm when I get there??? 😀
YAY! So glad you liked it Heather!! XO
O my I love bread! Once I learned the no knead way there was no going back- so easy to do and eat!
There is nothing like fresh-baked bread!!
