Directions
Food Processor French Bread, This is a very simple and quick French Bread. It has a finer texture and more of a chewy crust than what you get from the bakery. I found this in an Bon Appetite years and years ago. I sometimes make rolls rather than loaves. With this coming together so quickly you can easily make large batches; with two students helping to shape the rolls I’ve made 6 batches, start to finish in under two hours. Prep time doesn’t include rising time., My first time using a food processor for anything! This simple recipe turned out very nice, both in presentation and flavor. Thank you!
