English Muffin Bread (also includes metric measurements)

A very generous friend spends her summers in Montana.  She just returned to the desert and bought back a jar of Wild Huckleberry Preserves for everyone on the church staff.  Huckleberries are little known in the Arizona, but they are delicious! That little jar of preserves was calling out for a loaf of English Muffin Bread, fresh and hot from the oven.  I had to oblige. This quick yeast bread has the taste and texture of an English muffin, with all the nooks and crannies to hold melted butter.

This is a quick and easy bread – only rises once.  English Muffin Bread would be a great one to try if you’re new to bread baking, or if you’re an experienced baker in a hurry! The batter of this no-knead loaf goes straight into the pan, no rolling or shaping involved. Is there anything better than the smell of freshly baked bread? There is a reason that people showing a home for sale will have a bread machine going!

Enjoy!
