My latest triumph - Milk loaf in a pipe tin or small tin - recipes & photos

[Debbiebillg]

Hope it's ok with CC, here tis ........
Hi Debbie,
I call them Baps but the recipe is a simple bread recipe.Growing up in Cornwall it's what us locals called flattish bread rolls or if they were smaller and more domed shaped they were called "splits"
400g strong bread flour(white,brown,granary or a mixture)
1 sachet of dried yeast or 30g fresh yeast( I used 11/2 tsp)
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
200g warm water
50g olive oil
1. Mix all ingredients 20sec/ speed 3 to combine.The mixture should form a ball and the dough should begin to clean the sides of the bowl.If too dry add a little more water.
2. Knead on dough setting,  for 2 minutes.
3.Remove the TM lid,turn the TM bowl upside down and tip out the dough.Gather the dough together into a ball.Press lightly into a bread tin or shape into rolls and place onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment.Brush lightly with olive oil,cover with a clean tea towel and leave to rise in a warm place until double in size.
4. Bake the loaf 20-30 minutes or the rolls 10-12 minutes @220c.

I find I get a better result with a double rise,so after the 2 minute kneading I leave the dough in the TM bowl put it in a warm place until doubled in size.Give it a 30sec  to knock it back.This is when I get a little "annal" as I weigh the dough and divide by 6    It's usually between 110g-115g per roll,shape into the bap shape and put the 6 rolls for a second rise in a warm place,when doubled in size, cook.
These are proably not what your DH remembers as Baps but I hope you enjoy them.

my tin has arrived just now...off to the kitchen 

(time lapse) okay, have cut it and it is wonderful  just having some soup tonight for dinner, so will have this on the side

OK OK OK OK - enough!  That does it!  I have been resisting this tin for long enough now, and that last photo just finished off my last resistance.  I am off to order one too .......

The power of the photo 

Good one CP63, it toasts well too.

way to go CP...

Looks fantastic CP63. It's a great recipe & tin. Love the single rise.  I'll be making another loaf this weekend. Between the sourdough, this and Isi's rolls bread in this house is sorted.

You didn't waste any time VHJ, I still haven't decided whether to get one or not.  For those of you who bought them are you happy with them ? At this, rate they'll be sold out by the time I make my mind up lol ?  The thing that's holding me off is I'm not sure it would be big enough for our family of 5. What do you all think ?

[judydawn]

I love mine to bits Debbie and haven't cooked anything else since I received it. I will but for the time being I am just so wrapped in it I just want to keep making it when needed. Obviously I don't need to bake bread anywhere near as often as you would with a family of 5 as yours would probably eat this whole loaf in 1 sitting but if you like to vary your bread cooking, it is well worth the money and it is so quick with just the one rise.

Yippee!  My tin just arrived!  Have to go out this morning and I have a busy weekend, but will try to fit in making one, can't wait.

Great photo CP   

[Debbiebillg]

JD I think I'll get one, or maybe 2 lol.  Maybe then I have the option of making an extra loaf especially if my parents are here as well.  Thanks for your help, once again. You're a gem !!

I am crossing my fingers that mine arrives in the mail today - I so want to play over the weekend 

[JulieO]

I couldn't help myself and made one in between going in and out today.  I did end up leaving it to prove just a bit too long as it was starting to poke through the little viewing hole, looked funny but the end product turned out great.  I used poppy seeds instead of sesame seeds.

I now can't work out why that person who left a review of the tin said it needed a bigger recipe to work. 

[Katiej]

I'm waiting for my tin to arrive also. I've made this loaf twice now in a cake tin, so can't wait to have to try it for real 

I wonder how many tins they sold of the back of this forum? Quite a lot that's for sure!
 

[judydawn]

Just goes to show Katie, when us forum members want something we do something about it and the supplier must be rubbing her hands with glee at the number of orders placed. Good on her for responding to Debbie's request.
I had to laugh at you making a pipe loaf without the tin - talk about being keen

this morning I basically made the No Fuss recipe however I added 20g olive oil and about 20g more warm water. Did one rise and then knocked it back, and took off about 150g as I was not sure if there was going to be too much dough for the tin and cause an overflow. Oiled and seeded the tin as per earlier suggestion. As soon as I saw the dough near the hole I whacked it in the oven and 25 mins later out came this lightly golden crusty loaf. OMG the texture is the same as a bought tank loaf    dee lighted! (not going to bore people with any more photo's of every loaf I bake from now onwards tho)
