Different apples for different parts of the country I guess.

I've never seen Sweet Sixteen or Macoun here but Honey Crisps and Pink Lady have been around for quite a while (and they are good). I used to get Jonagold in KS all the time but can't find them here. Never heard of the Blondies.

We have Apple Crisp during the beginnning of the apple season around here. They are our favorite.

rhjohns, You posted how you roll your yeast dough on an Oiled surface. That made sense to me. Usually I would flour the surface. When I made my multigrain bread this week...I Oiled the surface. WOW....it rolled out did not stick and it was PERFECT. And then used the knife Ron recommended. to slice....it was a PERFECT. DAY. Thanks again, Aria

Bread does make the day better!

This weekend I will be baking loaf bread and sourdough bread. It is time for more yogurt too.

I started pizza dough this morning for calzones. Each person can pick their fillings.

It is going to be fun!

Perhaps a DUMB question but I am going to ask?????
My husband's favorite bread makes one 2 pound loaf and one one pound loaf. EEK. I do do like this.

Can I double the recipe......and make 3 two pound loaves? Just double the recipe?

As long as I have been baking (and it is a LONG TIME)...I never wanted to double the recipe. Thanks, Aria

Increasing the number of loaves is easy!

I go by the cups of water. Each cup will make a 9x5 loaf. It is then a teaspoon of salt per cup and about a pck of yeast. Don't worry too much about the amount of oil and sugar. You only need about a teaspoon or so per cup of water to feed the yeast.

I hope this makes sense.
