Hi David!
First I want to say that you have really nice hands. Very clean and well-manicured! lol I made this recipe today, but switched up the flour…. I did one cup whole wheat, one cup buckwheat flour, and one cup white bread flour. I also substituted the butter with avocado oil to keep it non-dairy. It was divine and has a beautiful earthy/nutty taste from buckwheat flour. Highly recommend. I love that you basted with honey water… gave it a nice sweetness on the first bite! Thanks for the recipe!
Hi Stacy!
Your Bread looks so good and even healthier. Good job 🙂
Is 1 1/2 teaspoons yeast correct. This did not rise for me and yeast was fresh.
Yes, 1 1/2 teaspoons yeast correct.
