Nahhh; I\u2019d rather have my breadmaker do it for me and just eat the fresh bread after it comes out of the oven. I\u2019m in that \u201cwork smarter, not harder\u201d group. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBready or not, here I crumb.\u201d National Homemade Bread Day is coming up this month. Get your breadmaker out and bake! It\u2019s safe to do that now\u2014you can even find yeast in the stores and it won\u2019t be sold out, like during the pandemic when everyone stayed home and baking was out of control. Remember that? Why don\u2019t you join me for November 17th; take out your breadmaker and quit loafing around. Did you hear how the bakery caught fire? The owner\u2019s business is toast now. Seriously though, do you know why bread jokes are the best? It\u2019s because they never get stale! <\/p>\n<p>My featured bread (above) that I\u2019m proud to show off is a rustic French loaf baked in a Dutch oven. I mean, it came out amazingly good, with dough that I kneaded in my Zojirushi breadmaker.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.zojirushi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/French-bread-dough-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I used this recipe from <a href=\"https:\/\/heartscontentfarmhouse.com\/easy-french-bread\/#recipe\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Heart\u2019s Content Farmhouse<\/strong><\/a> for this one, but it looks like there are lots of similar ones online.

Guys, I present to you the easiest savory bread in the world. You know how easy it is to make plain white bread in the breadmaker, right? I give credit for this to my wife, who knows exactly how much I like to work. <\/p>\n<p>Go to TJ\u2019s (Trader Joe\u2019s\u00ae) and get some of their Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning. It\u2019s a blend of black and white sesame seeds, dried garlic and onion, sea salt and poppy seeds; just like the topping on a typical Everything Bagel. Use the White Bread cycle and during the 2nd Knead time, add about 2 tablespoons into the dough. I even used the auto dispenser that comes with my breadmaker for this so I didn\u2019t even have to open the lid.
