Reply To: Pan Size Variations

Oh gosh, now that you point it out, I see what you mean!  I checked the King Arthur site and their “Standard Bread Loaf Pan” is 8 1/2 x 4 1/2.  I will use the true 9 x 5 pans for CL donations.  Thanks for cluing me in to that.

I mixed this batch for 40 minutes total on my ancient KitchenAid, with a couple cooling pauses.  The window looked good to me.  Final proof was 60 minutes and seemed to pass the poke test, down from 70 minutes last time, which I think was overproofed.  I will try mixing a little longer next time.

Thanks for your help!
