This was a great flavored bread. I used 1 1/4 cup warm water with 1/3 cup of powdered milk, it's easier than scalding. Also I had to slit the top of bread in loaf pan on the second rising. I used close to 4 cups of flour so it was huge. My temperature was 405 and I had to pull it at 30 minutes because the top was very dark. This was my first yeast loaf bread as I typically make rolls. But I will try it again to see if I can better perfect my method, thanks for posting.

<p>A Very Happy Stay At Home Mom!!!! I have a soon to be 11year old that lives with his dad, his name is JayJay, and 3 living at home with me, and 1 on the way....I'm lovin' life! Ashton will be 8 in January, he's the smartest kid I know! Wrylie will be 6 in February and he's got more passion and caring in his little pinkie than most adults I know!!! And my very personal pride and joy Hennessey. She was born on the 27th of September 2007 and she's my little dollbaby. I love being at home with my children..love paying for ALL the stuff my 2nd grader brings home...soccer fees, and basketball fees, and book orders...I love cartin' my kindergartner around, and then coming home and cuddlin' with my little girl, and shopping for her favorite thing...shoes. My husband and I are as tight as 2 people can be, and I hate it when he leaves for work and can't wait until the clock strikes 4:30 because I know that means he's on his way home. Life is good. I couldn't ask for more.</p>
