Made 2 basic white bread loaves for the first time and they came out pretty decent, despite being a tad lopsided.

    They look good!

    Did you use bread pans to help them keep that shape? Asking because mine have been turning out more flat and wide using a baking tray, unsurprisingly I guess.

      Yeah, I used 2 glass loaf pans. I think they came out lopsided because when I put the dough in the pans, I didn’t press it down into the pan at all, I just shaped them and dumped them in, but my cookbook said to press them into the shape of the pans a bit, which I totally overlooked.

      I haven’t tried baking bread without a loaf pan yet, but that’s next on the list!
