    I just made another batch of this, but didn't feel like hauling out my mixer, so I did it by hand...they turned quite heavy and tough...I'm wondering if using the mixer incorporates more air into the mixture while it is running...

    no loss though...sliced them thin...baked them again for a few minutes to make thin bread 'chips'

    So the first time, you used a food processor? Also, I don't know a lot about baking - but what is the reasoning for not using yeast? and what would happen if I added yeast???

    Please and thanks!

    The first time I used my stand mixer and let it go with the bread hook for 4 or 5 minutes...turned out light and soft..

    the second time I just did it by hand in a bowl, and then it turned out tough..so I'm thinking the mixer is the way to go with this recipe..maybe it incorporates more air into the dough...

    As for the yeast, it consumes sugar and excretes (eww!) carbon dioxide and alcohol into the dough making it rise giving you a larger loaf..but I didn't use yeast at all with either batch, and the first one turned out nice..the second one...not so much.. I wanted to see how it would be with the increased amount of baking powder. If you are going to add yeast, you will have to add more sugar for it to feed on...otherwise you'll just get a yeasty tasting loaf....

    I am going to make another batch testing both methods and see how they turn out.


    Off to make homemade Nutella!!
