This month’s Fresh From The Oven challenge was hosted by myself and I decided that we should make a new favourite bread of mine, a Sandwich Bread Loaf. This was orginally made by Michel Roux Jr. as part of the BBC TV Series ‘The Great British Food Revival’. The recipe for the loaf is here.
I like this loaf as it is very simple and easy to make. The addition of the Golden Syrup keeps the loaf moist and provides an extra sweetness. The loaf keeps well for a few days and ideal to take to work for your sandwiches or it makes excellent toast once it is a couple of days old. As I have made this before, I decided not to make it in a loaf tin and made it into a fat baton shape instead. The result was excellent
I hope everyone else had as much fun as I did making the loaf
Happy Cooking!


















Love the chubby loaf shape – it really suits this bread. Thanks for hosting this month – always fun
Thanks for hosting this month Jo. I entered for the first time in 9 months!
Thanks for hosting this, Jo. I loved the loaf!
Happy to have made this bread for the blog, even though we’re not much of white bread eaters in my household. I especially liked it for toast! I like the above shaping batard.
Thanks for hosting.
