MINI BREAD LOAVES



Mini Bread Loaves image

These crusty little loaves make great bread bowls, sandwich rolls and toasting bread. This recipe makes 16-18 "baby breads" ..enough to last us the week and still have some for the freezer. A trick: Slice the loaves into fourths thru the "equators". Use the middle two slices for toast and the outer slices for a sandwich. A great recipe for beginning bread makers. Variations: Italian type bread: Sprinkle one baking sheet with cornmeal then slit the tops of the mini breads and sprinkle with more cornmeal. Bread Bowls: Do not reduce heat or spray with water after 10 minutes. Baking at a higher temperature will make a crustier and more substantial loaf. ****** Note! A mistake was made when I first posted this recipe. As of 1-12-05 the recipe reads 13 cups of flour rather than 11. Thanks. Barb

Tips: Bake the Perfect Mocha Mini Bread Loaves

  • Use freshly brewed coffee. Stale coffee will result in a less flavorful bread. For the best mocha flavor, use a dark roast coffee.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread at the right temperature. If the oven is too hot, the bread will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. Bake the bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the bread to set.
