One More Quick Bread

A round loaf of bread, cut into wedges.

This recipe is fairly similar to last week’s, but it’s baked in a cake pan. It calls for an 8 inch pan, but I only have a 9 inch, so that’s what I use. You’ll need to bake yours a bit longer if you use an 8 inch pan.

You can cut this bread into slices, but I usually cut it into wedges, as seen above, which are nice for serving with soup. (not that you want to eat soup right now, unless you live on the other side of the equator from me!)

In this recipe and last week’s, you can feel free to do some substituting when it comes to the milk. I’ve used buttermilk, sour cream and milk, and a milk/yogurt mixture with success, so poke around your fridge and see what needs using. 😉

p.s. I forgot to add that I've successfully "veganized" this recipe by using soy milk and Ener-G egg replacer and it comes out beautifully.

I just wanted to say that this bread has become one of our favorites. It bakes up quickly and easily on those days I discover I'm out of homemade bread in the freezer and I don't have time to bake a yeast bread. My son (10) loves it with jam.

Yum! Fresh bread and soup. Sounds good to me - of course we are on the other side of the Equator from you and entering a cold, nasty winter.

I am wanting to get into making more bread and I like the sound of this recipe. That's my task for tomorrow. Thanks!

Kristen do you think I could use a 9 inch cast iron skillet? I don't have cake pans. This is a lovely, rustic looking round of bread! Thank you for sharing!

I can't wait to try it---but we're having our crazy heat wave now, 3 or 4 days in a row of upper 80's - low 90's which is practically unheard of in Seattle in early June! (We usually only get a few days like this in late July or August.) And we don't have air conditioning, it's unusual to have A/C in homes in the usually temperate Pacific Northwest. It makes me long for a rainy day, with soup and a slice of this bread! Thanks for sharing the recipe, it's bookmarked for a cool day.
