My husband says this is better than any bakery. I make it every week in Toronto.

Good but took longer in my oven than expected.

Baked this in Alberta. Sharing it with everyone I know.

My brother was diagnosed with celiac last year. I made this for him the first time I visited. He ate three slices in silence. Then he said: that is real bread. I will never forget that moment.

Mine did not cook through. My oven runs cool. Added fifteen minutes and it was fine.

Quick and easy. Good crust. Nice with butter.
