Hi Bill,

How long do you cook the bread for?

Thanks Col

Hi there Col,

Cooking the bread only takes 20 mins or so in the camp oven. (or normal oven at home)

It's the getting there that takes a little time and effort.
After mixing the dough and kneeding for 10 mins or so, you leave the dough in a ball and place in a bowl. Then leave in a warm place for the yeast to prove and double in size. I find the front windscreen ledge is good, just place a tea towel over the bowl.
When the dough has risen, punch down and kneed again, then place the dough in a bread tin and allow to rise again. When completed, the dough is ready for the (camp) oven.
After 20 mins or so, tap the bread with or knuckles and if it sounds hollow it is ready for consumption.

I use the Lauke Crusty White bread mix, which is available in 600 gm packets at Woolworths. This makes a full sized loaf, but if you have a smaller tin, just use less flour/yeast mix. The instructions are on the packet.

Happy cooking.


Bill.
