Best to get right to it and try again before you change your mind. : ) Would love to know if it works out next time.

The fact that it looked beautiful but had the weird taste made me think of too much leavening...you know how baked goods have a very odd taste when there's too much baking soda in it? Obviously, this doesn't have baking soda as an ingredient but could the yeast have been "off" or old or something...I hope it was just a one off and you'll try it again with perfect results.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-67467668046808756832017-08-21T14:39:46.746-04:002017-08-21T14:39:46.746-04:00I could use some help!

I watched the video clip and followed the recipe, but it tasted horrible. It looks beautiful, but it has a weird sour/bitter taste. Does anyone know what went wrong? I just searched to find someone else who had made this recipe and found your blog. Would appreciate the help!

I would make sure to follow it exactly and see that the oven temp is correct, etc. Good luck!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-37299258663844341032017-06-12T19:00:35.820-04:002017-06-12T19:00:35.820-04:00Troubleshooting help needed! I tried this bread, ...Troubleshooting help needed! I tried this bread, but I used active yeast, not instant. The dough was way wetter than it was in your picture too, lacked any semblance of structure. It barely rose to the rim of the pan and collapsed in the oven. Ideas? I love the taste, so I'm trying to figure out how to make it rise!

It was really sticky, but came off my fingers really easily with a greased spatula. Mine didn't rise as much and was a tiny bit dense, but it tasted delicious. Next time I'm going to see if the hand held mixer can handle it (probably not, but "nothing ventured, nothing gained."). amkinser7https://www.blogger.com/profile/07759906845221747197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-7156191825991143092016-01-19T16:40:34.796-05:002016-01-19T16:40:34.796-05:00Hi Bonita, you sound like a kindred spirit!

You just can't beat fresh homemade bread, all toasted to your own liking (especially when it's this easy). I love it when I spot a recipe I really want to cook/bake from watching the TV show and it works out. I'm glad I'm not alone. Thanks again!

I did not have any whole wheat flour, so used Flax seed meal. Since the WW Flour is just for flavor it is a good substitute. I will be making this more often now. I saw this on the ATK TV Show and was extremely happy to find the recipe and instructions on your site.
