About

A texture, this loaf is good for dinner, made into croutons or a stuffing, or toasted with melted cheese the next day. It uses a combination of dried herbs that are basic in any cook’s cupboard, and is a snap to make. I usually use walnut or almond oil, but olive oil is nice, too. Enjoy the scent while this is rising and baking!

Method

Place all the ingredients in the pan according to the order in the manufacturer’s instructions. Set crust on medium or dark and program for the Basic cycle; press Start. (This recipe may be made using the Delay Timer.)
When the baking cycle ends, immediately remove the bread from the pan and place it on a rack. Let cool to room temperature before slicing.
