Curious how the milk powder addition to the bread went?

Just took it out of the oven. Looks great so far! I’ll cut into it in the morning. Held its shape and rose higher, both better than it has done since I started baking on a pizza steel. I’m optimistic!

Tucking into last night’s bread for breakfast. I’m impressed with the interior crumb. Looking forward to buttering some crunchy toast.

Looks like adding milk powder will be a keeper in my bread routine. #sourdough #bread #breadposting #breakfast

EDITED to add — holy, this toasts to a perfect brown in 5 minutes. I find sourdough can take as long as 9 minutes to toast perfectly, but natural sugars in the milk powder clearly speed it up by about 30% toasting time for a slice in my toaster oven.

I edited the post to add the surprising delight of learning that this shaves nearly 35% or more of the toasting time off for my sourdough. I’ve had to toast it for as long as 9 minutes in my toaster oven — but this was toasted to perfection in 5:30, with the effect being that the inside of the toast remains softer and chewier!

Best bread I’ve made from an eating standpoint. Milk powder for the win! #bread #sourdough #baking
