Italian Herb Bread Recipe — 10 Comments

  1. Making this one for the neighbors for Christmas gifts. Going to brush the top with melted butter and fresh rosemary infused.

  2. I finally burned out the motor on my 20-year-old Oster bread machine. I have the 2 lb. Italian Herb bread recipe that came with it (very similar to yours), which baked on the French Bread cycle for 3 h 50 min total. My daughter recently gave me her hardly used Williams Sonoma 2-lb bread machine; I tried the same recipe on the W.S. French Bread setting and it didn’t rise as much as it should have. The W.S. French Bread cycle is only 3h 30 min, and although both machines include three rise times, the Oster included a second kneading for 20 minutes. Is there an easy way to convert recipes from one machine to another, or should I just experiment with the W.S. custom settings/timings? Thanks!

  3. This bread was delicious. I used the French bread cycle and the light crust setting. My only problem was that the top of the loaf collapsed. I thought the middle of the loaf might not be done, but it was. The bread had a good texture throughout. It just wasnโ€™t pretty. Any suggestions?

    • I used the medium setting. Let me know how this one turns out for you. I LOVED the flavor of this one, but I was concerned that it was too soft . . . and it’s really tall. ๐Ÿ™‚
