Freshly homemade bread is one of the exciting moments in my family as I get to control the ingredients used. And my kids gets excited as the get involved in the process of baking the bread they eat. It also helps to save up money spent on buying from the stores or bakery as bread is one of the staple food we eat for breakfast. Making and baking bread is quite easy once you get the measurement of your ingredients right, set the Temperature of your oven well and use of good yeast. So I use to think dough only rise in warm environment turns out it could rise well in the fridge. In fact it gave the yeast time to work its magic well . This was my first time doing that and it came our just right. Let's bake. #bakeabread
