Iowa State Fair Pizza Bread

"This is a DELICIOUS recipe that I found in the 2002 Iowa State Fair Cookbook. I love that it works in a bread machine but it also can be assembled with the dough setting and baked in a traditional pan. The color and texture are divine. Credits to Joyce Whipps, West Des Moines - 1st Place, 2000 Breads, Bread Machine."

  1. When I saw this recipe I knew I had to try it! I used V8 juice in the spicy hot flavor & fresh shaved parmesan, but other than that made as directed. The loaf rose about an inch above the bread pan & made a light, crisp crust with a soft & tender center. The flavor is outstanding & we'd eaten about half the loaf before dinner was even on the table! Thanks for sharing the recipe, flowers! Made & enjoyed for Fall 2009 Pick A Chef. You've been adopted! :) http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=310505&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
     
  2. Have made this three times and each time by hand using tomato juice, no cheese and no egg whites. Three winners. The only thing I did differently the second time, was I warmed the juice so the yeast would rise better. Used with "Recipe #210658" - excellent!
     
  3. I saw this today and got soooo excited because I had all the ingredients to make it. I used fresh basil instead of the dehydrated, but the rest was the same. OMGOODNESS.. the whole house smelled like an Italian restaurant when it was baking! I did cut down the sugar a little based on one cooks comments. I cannot WAIT to make Panini's out of this bread! I have some meatballs, mozzarella cheese, and spinach just waiting for a grilled Panini lunch tomorrow! Thank you!
     
  4. This is a super bread! I did have to add 4 tablespoons more flour however. I used an imported sheep's cheese from Italy that I grated. The flavor is so good and the aroma is to die for. I started it in the bread machine and then baked it in the oven for 30 minutes at 350*. Made for PAC Spring 2010. Thanks, flowers for the great recipe!
     
  5. This has a nice texture & the flavor lends itself to many applications. I used a full pkt of yeast & my loaf was rising quickly. I elected to bake in the oven & made two smaller loaves. I found the bread fairly sweet & might reduce the sugar next time depending on wat I have planned for the bread. Made for Fall '09 Pick A Chef.

In these tough economic times, our family is trying to save money by staying closer to home and eating out less. I love to go out to eat and was feeling a little sad to give up those special nights. I analyzed why we like to dine out and it became clear that we enjoyed the delicious food and the beautiful settings. So I've embraced the challenge to continue eating delicious food and creating a beautiful setting for our family's dining pleasure. To that end, I've been led to RecipeZaar - my new favorite website home. Our family really likes spending time together and meals are a fabulous opportunity to share the joys and frustrations of the day. Providing an enjoyable setting to share the daily meal makes me happy. The family has responded well to the changes and really seem to appreciate the beautiful table settings and newly-improved menus. It's nice that they noticed.
