Do you have to use a bread tin?

I'm tired of kitchen clutter and don't want to buy another piece of junk.

Like those round loaves, can you just dollop it let rise then bake it on a griddle?

I have 4 bread tins that sit one inside the other, 2 mixing bowls and a cane banneton, plus a couple of flat sheets. You can shape the bread without any tin, but it takes some practice to stop it just spreading out once in the oven. I would recommend investing in one bread tin.

Here's last night's loaf, a wholemeal topped with sunflower and poppy seeds. Tastes fab.

Have a Panasonic... it doesn't get used much.

Going round Miss Goodbody's later though, to get my teeth into her baps.

If you've got a pot that can go in the oven, including lid, that would give you a nice round loaf. I use a Lidl enamelled cast iron pot as my Dutch oven, it works a treat.
If your dough's firm you can get away without this but it's a lifesaver with slacker doughs (as the old saying goes, the wetter the better).

I trust you kneaded them firmly beforehand?

Nah, I'm just trying out new recipes. (And I tend not to post photos of the disasters!)

It was so nice this morning being woken by the smells of freshly baked bread wafting through the house. When I retire the Panasonic bread maker will be the only alarm clock I have.

Another first attempt of mine, this time an Earl Grey tea loaf. (Tin foil is to catch any drips of the lemon glaze)

That sounds nice.... recipe please?

 

[CharlesF]

I didn't have enough figs to make another of Glasgowcyclist's fig and fennel look; instead I made fig, apricot and sultana

I keep forgetting to do this! Is tomorrow okay?

I had a go at the Bake Off recipe for Fougasse today

I think it ended up a bit too thick but I'll try it again.
