I have a recipe for bread that needs at least two hours to prepare. It's nice and worth the time, but this one-hour French bread is quick and tasty when I need it quicker. 

When I think of bread, I think of the scent of fresh loaves baking. I am a fan of every bread made fresh by a nearby bakery. I enjoy bread slathered in butter. 

Some Sundays back, I had dinner and wished my chicken Madera to have bread. I had just my supplies and what I could find in my home. But I used this recipe for french bread. It took one hour and I was able to make two loaves, so I used one that day and saved the other for the next day. 

Add this to your next meal, which comes with fresh bread. You'll love it, I promise!
