English Muffin and Sally Lunn Breads



I am still baking my way through the breads in Bernard Clayton's New Complete Book of Breads.

I made two batches of English Muffin bread; That's four loaves. 

We enjoyed a loaf and a half at home ourselves. 

I shared half a loaf my our hairdresser, one whole loaf with my homeschool co-op, and another whole loaf with one of my besties. 

I did buy some pretty, paper bags to make it easier to share extra bread with others. 

Now that I've given a few loaves away, I have to say, sharing fresh bread is almost as great as eating it! 

Later in the week, I made a loaf of Sally Lunn bread. 

This is a sweet, fluffy loaf of bread traditionally eaten as a roll at tea time, so I made it in the evening, sliced it, and served it with hot tea for dessert. 

It tasted almost exactly like a sweet, soft, traditional dinner roll!

I've always wanted to be able to make delicious dinner rolls rather than buying them at the store. 

I want to adapt and find a pan so that I can create the smaller, more traditional Sally Lunn dinner rolls, rather than I large loaf like the one above.
