Simple bread

I hadn’t ever made bread before last night. I wanted to use a really easy recipe and not get too fancy about ingredients so I would ensure success on my first outing. I also was out of bread, and I needed some.

I was looking different recipes online and ran across this one. The ingredients were simple and the prep seemed doable so I gave it a shot. It ended up being wonderful bread.
