I was a little bit nervous because I had never made bread bowls before. When I finished mixing it in my KitchenAid it was a crumby mess, but after kneading it for 10 minutes it was great. I made 6 bowls with it.

This is the second time I have made these bread bowls, and I am pleased with the results. As per other members' reviews,e I added a tablespoon of sugar, but I also added White Pepper Powder and Dried Oregano to the dough :] makes it delish and smells like pizza dough! Instead of the egg wash, I use milk + garlic oil + oregano + white pepper powder. I'm also thinking of making it a bit cuter by adding little knobs of dough to the top, so it has a handle! :D

This was really good and easy to make. I gave it 4 stars because I added sugar to get the yeast foamy. They are really good with soup or plain.

Simple to make and very good with soup or chili. Has anyone thought of any good ideas for adding a little more flavor?

I added a few teaspoons of sugar to the water and yeast. That helped it rise great both times. I used olive oil instead of vegetable oil. I added some garlic salt to the dough. I did use cornmeal and I agree I think it helped prevent the dough from spreading flat. I used a whole beaten egg as a wash before I put it in the oven. It browned up great. I did cover it during the last 10 minutes. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I would make these again with these changes.

Beautiful dough, although spread too much while rising and came out rather flat. BTW 8 were the perfect size 6 would have been too large.

I will try these again,I made 8 of them. Next time I will diffently make 6?. Right now they look like large sandwich rolls. I used butter, cornmeal, and cracked pepper. I did use them for chili bowl,[small ones] I just put it in a bowl large enough for more chili to go around bowl.

Very good. I needed to make miniature bread bowls and tried two different ways. I tried putting a small amount into muffin tins and I tried just rolling the balls and placing them on a baking sheet. The ones on the baking sheet turned out better, but both methods worked. I made about 24 mini bread bowls with this recipe. Very delicious and everyone loved them. For homemade bread it was that hard to make either!

Fantastic! After a poor experience with another bread recipe, I was nervous whether I could make this turn out. The only thing I did differently was to sprinkle some Italian seasoning on when I did the egg wash. It was perfect on the first try. No need to look for another bread bowl recipe. Thank you!!!

these turned out really well, although could use a little tweaking. The texture and appearance were perfect. My only issue was lack of flavor. I will mess around with seasoning next time. Also, I made 4 and served with cream of broccoli.

Easy. Yummy. Tasted just like the ones from the store. I added a T sugar as suggested by other reviewers. I think next time I will make some "mini" ones for my littlest kids.

Loved everything about this recipe. It was easy and delicious. My family loved them. I added garlic and parsley to the dough. I scooped out center and filled each bowl with black beans with a sprinkle of cheese on top. DELICIOUS!!!

Absolutely NOT a bread bowl. It rose like it was supposed to, but when I put the "loaves" in the oven they expanded, but were flat. Perhaps you could put a spoonful of soup in each one, but they looked nothing like the pictures. The egg white wash made them brown too quickly. I will not be making these again any time soon.

These bread bowls were "souper!" I followed the recipe fairly close. I added a TBSP of sugar, and didn't do the egg white and cornmeal. Instead I brushed the tops with butter. It made them super crisp, and strong, which I was worried that the egg whites might not do. Also, I took other's advice and only made 6 instead of 8 bowls. I think anything smaller would have been just a tease :o). In fact, next time, I'll only make 2 or 4. We like big servings! The perfect bread bowl for a hearty helping of potato soup. Pictures to come.

I use this recipe every time I make a creamy soup like potato soup or beer cheese soup. I halve the recipe and put everything into the bread machine on the dough cycle. I then shape them and let them rise and then bake as directed. I completely skip the cornmeal and eggwash and we never miss it. Chewy and yummy!

This is a great basic bread bowl recipe. I suggest if you want flavor do as others have suggested and add spices and herbs. I made mine with a special italian seasoning salt spice that I had on hand! The smells were beyond amazing! I will definately be referencing this recipe again in the near future!

Some recipes are worth tweaking if they have potential, but this is not one of them. Not only do they bake up flat, but they are positively TASTELESS. If you don't mind wasting your time and good ingredients, then this recipe is for you. I personally will not make again.
