Bread no. 33 : x bread

Adjustments : I substitutes out 1 C white flour for wheat and used a bit less butter. I also brushed a tiny bit of olive oil and salt over the top before baking.

Notes : I am not sure what to call this bread because on the Pioneer Woman's site it's just called "the bread." I went with "x bread" because of the "x" cut on top before baking. Mine looks so different than hers – but I love the "detail" on top.

Review : So good. I can no longer keep track of my favorite breads (I'm anxiously waiting to finish this project up so I can go back and write about the best ones), but this must be up there. And yes, in that last photo, you can see the steam (smoke?) rising from it. I had a bite while it was fresh out of the oven and amazing. Perfect crust.

    I’ve been waiting for you to share this since I saw the instagram pic. I’ve always been intrigued by baking bread in a dutch oven pot, so now I have no excuse not to try. Can’t wait to test it this weekend 🙂
