Easy Easy Easy - and soooo delicious! I have just recently started trying to make my own bread, and have had a lot of 'learning experiences' to start out with. (ie, FLOPS!) Which I do expect, but it can be frustrating. It was sooo nice to try a new recipe and just have it work, and be delicious and exactly what I expected....
I didnt do it in the bread machine, followed some of the instructions in other reviews... including adding the extra egg yolk, upping the sugar to .5 cups and doing an eggwash on before baking. One loaf, 375 for 35 minutes....
One thing I would stress to others - this is a very wet dough, it seems too wet when you first let it rise. Mine was almost a batter and I was really worried!
I did a very light kneading before the second rise and incorporated a bit more flour, but left it a fairly sticky loose dough. I had to resist the urge to add a lot more flour to stiffen it up, and apparently got it about right. Just add barely enough to make it shape-able, and the end product will be light and tender.
