I love making a couple extra loaves to freeze, or using a Mini Loaf Pan
and freezing them for school lunches! (Be sure to adjust baking times for mini loaves. About 20-25 minutes)

If you’re giving bread as a gift, these paper loaf pans are great and look super cute. Swap the twisty tie for a pretty ribbon or striped twine!

What’s your favorite fall bread recipe?
