  Have done this recepie quite a few times now and it has always been successful. The children keep on asking me to do it again and again and can't wait for it to come out of the oven.

  Love this recipe. Have made 4 loaves in the last week!!!!! The family love the taste, and it is so easy. And you get to work your frustrations out on the dough:-)

  This bread is absolutely lovely. made it "a la traditional" and it came out lovely and crusty on the outside and fluffy on the inside. A little tip to help with prooving the dough is to preheat your oven to about 30C, boil a pan of water, cover the dough in a damp towel, put it in the oven along with the pan of water, switch it off and let it grow!

  I mixed the bread dough in my Kmix, not sure if that was the reason, but the dough was very soft and when proving in the airing cupboard the rise was very fragile. Seemed to spread and flatten when I took it out of the cupboard, so knocked it back for a second time and put dough into a loaf tin, let it prove for 30 mins more. This time it didn't sink, in the oven now looking great. Will let you know how it tastes.

  Really easy recipe and the bread tasted fabulous. I "kneaded" the dough for 10 minutes in the processor using the dough hook.

  Very straightforward recipe. Bread tasted lovely though perhaps a little bit heavy, I will try the over-night proofing in the fridge next time.

  Made this yesterday, and is one of the best loafs I ever made, I warn you the dough at first starts very very wet and sticky you almost feel like you have done something wrong, but then it comes together very quickly, and is delicious. I baked mine in a bread pan, and it came out a lovely shape.

  I've used this bread recipe twice now. I did it the "traditional" way (no bread maker). Both times the bread was perfect on the outside but ever so slightly doughy in the middle. Next time I might try leaving it in the oven a little longer, keeping a close eye on it so it doesn't burn. Nothing beats fresh, warm bread!

  First attempt and so far, so good. Fairly easy to make, and left the dough to rise for as long as possible. I've found that the car is an excellent place to leave it to rise, especially with the warm weather! Next time I try this recipe I will not use as much salt, as I two teaspoons is far too much.

  This recipe is amazing! I've made this loaf loads of times and everyone always loves it. I've also recently made rolls with this recipe and they were pretty impressive too. Brilliant recipe and easy too!

  This was my first time making bread. It was perfect first time. Now I never buy bread from the supermarket, a lot of it gets wasted and at £1.50 a go it works out expensive. Now I make three loaves for the price of a 60p bag of flour and the kids love it! There is never any left over. I leave mine to prove for at least three hours and it takes almost an hour in the oven. I LOVE this recipe!

  Ive decided that I want to improve the standard of food I give my 22 month old girl, she already has a wholsome diet, or so I thought until I read what was in the supermarket bought bread I give her on a daily basis. I was shocked and so decided to try and make my own. This recipe was my first attempt and it has gone great! I feel proud that I made it with my own hands and that my daughter loves something so artificial free. Thanks again Good Food!

  Excellent bread. made 3 loaves today by hand. Replaced the flour with 400g of wholemeal, 100g white. Used warm water, plus a tsp caster sugar. 4 yr old granddaughter 'helped' - we had a whale of a time!

  I really like this bread. Its also good to add other ingredients like i added thyme and garlic to one of my loaves. I did find that 300ml of water was to much though. Dont add it all because then the dough is too sticky.

  Any ideas anyone as to the proving over night? Do I just prove the once overnight or do I knock it back again in the morning and leave for another hour?
