I don’t know what possessed me to think I could or even
should make my own French bread but I am sure happy that I gave it a shot! This
turned out so good. It's quick and easy!! And unlike so many recipes this one
actually taste like French bread.
I love how easy it is. I put it in the bread
machine, then roll, to the over, and bam! I have French bread! Thank you Marie
for your awesome recipe! I love when people share their recipes with me. I love
new things and making it homemade verses buying it in the store.
