Tips
The use of Fast Action Yeast speeds up the bread making process in this recipe. Dough can be
shaped into baguettes, cobs, rolls etc and cooking time adjusted accordingly.
Make a delicious tea loaf by replacing half of the water with warm tea and adding 1-2tsp
mixed spice and 75g dried mixed fruit to the flour.
