Country Farm White Bread Mix; Single Pack; For Bread Machine or Oven

This mix is easy and delicious. All you need is 3 tablespoons of butter and some water. Everything else is included. The crust is perfect, the bread is soft and not at all dry. It is perfect. I’ve made this a few times and the only thing wrong with it is that it never lasts to the next day. My family devours it. It’s the best thing to come out of my bread machine. If you don’t like it, you did it wrong. A+, 5 stars, 10 out of 10.

I would never dare to make bread from scratch because I don’t have the patience. This mix was surprisingly good and quite easy to make. I baked it in a 9 x 13 pan and it came out perfect, everyone loved it. One problem ( but it’s fixable) the flavor was bland, add Parmesan cheese and try adding more rosemary, don’t be afraid to add more spices. I could hardly taste the herb mix included in the package. Also, the instructions said to bake 15- minutes, I baked it a bit longer so it would brown up a bit. Moist, easy to cut into squares. Very popular with my guests.

These bread machine breads are fantastic! I have a bread maker that is decades old and it was easy Peezy no problem follow the instructions and the bread was delicious! I will be ordering more!

The mix itself is excellent. I used it in a bread machine, so keep this in mind. The flavor is excellent compared to the zero-fiber, over-yeasted rip-off paste you get at the supermarket. But...there are three things you should know: 1) Do not follow the recipe with the butter. Three pounds of butter in a 1.5-pound loaf makes bread-flavored butter-soup. I suggest a half-stick of butter instead. (Unsalted, since the mix has tons of sodium in it.) Maybe only a little in the mix--just split the loaf when it's done and put the melted butter into the slit. I don't know--get creative. 2) The included yeast was dead. If you're doing the bread machine thing like I did, just pop over to the grocery store and buy some Fleischmann's bread machine yeast. A lot of the bad reviews for this product are obviously due to too much butter in a loaf that didn't rise because of dead yeast. As I test, I remixed my deflated test loaf with Fleishmann's yeast, re-cooked it and it rose respectability. Case closed. 3) Don't beat yourself up with the water temp if you're using a bread machine. Fresh yeast (like from a grocery store, where it moves off the shelf), will be fine at any temp from like 80 to 120 degrees. Anyway, if you're dumping the water at the bottom of bread machine's pan, it will be cooled to room temp because the pan is *metal*, and radiates the heat away immediately. The bread machine supplies the correct temp during the kneading and rise cycles. The initial water temp has very little to do with the actual temp of the mix when it's time to rise. Think about it. Also: Be careful how much water you put into the bread machine's pan. If you're putting a lot of butter in the mix, the water content of the butter counts toward the '1 cup' of water the instructions reference. Bread dough should be sticky and firm, and if rolled up in a ball it should stay in form--mostly. If it's too runny, it won't hold its shape during the rise phase, and the CO2 that yeast is producing will escape, and leave behind a deflated loaf of bread. Really just common sense.

flawless to make even at high altitude here. flavor was outstanding! moist, spongie inside and crisp crust.

Delicious combination of grains. Great taste, good texture.

The bread is very good, especially if you do the dough in the bread machine and then oven bake it. A big ol however is the ship. Really? Outrageous ship. I have Prime and I was shocked SHOCKED that the ship was not only free with Prime, but it was more than the product. C'mon, Prepared Pantry. I'll be making it from scratch. But thanks for the inspiration, PP.

Makes great bread
