Directions
French Bread (“Rapid Rise”),This recipe makes a rather good French loaf. Since it uses “rapid rise” yeast, it is quicker to make because it only needs 1 rise instead of 2. Prep time includes 40 minute rising time.,Made a herb and cheese loaf and a plain. I can’t have as I’m celaic but made these for my kids and boy friend. Super easy, smells amazing, looks great! Hope they love them.,Such an easy delicious bread! No more bread machine for me!
