Bread baking.

Today is a bad pain day. I had the urge to drug up, uptake all bad pain coping mechanisms and hide in bed. But I’m a mother, so one must plod on. My day became productive in the acts of laundry, washing up and baking bread instead.

I did the usual scan of google and Pinterest to find a decent recipe, and the ignore them completely and ‘wing it’. This time it paid off. I had read enough to understand that I should separate the eggs so as to create bread fluffiness (technical term) and that I would need hella amounts of eggs.

Here is the recipe:

I know putting sweetener into a load of bread seems daft but it kind of suppresses the egginess (yes, another technical term). The only issue I have found is that the loaf isn’t big enough, although I’m pretty certain that if I had folded the eggs in more carefully, it would have risen more.

Overall, I’m pretty pleased that I’ve managed to create a low carb loaf of bread on a bad day. I think Luke is pretty damn happy that he can have some toast too!
