Easy Multi-Grain Bread
Maybe you have been too nervous to try bread before, but believe me, this is a good one to start with. It is quick and easy, only needs to be kneaded once, rises once and doesn’t require any special pans or techniques. I modified it from an old Fleischmann’s Yeast recipe booklet that my mom had…
