Crispy bread in the oven
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. The bread will have a porous, airy crumb inside and a crispy crust outside. The bread can be stored for several days. Serve it with sandwiches or slice into pieces and enjoy with soups and main dishes. The secret to a crispy crust is placing the dough into a preheated hot pan, so I always heat the pan in the oven beforehand.
