I made some Sour Cream Lemon bread in my bread maker today. I had not used the bread maker in a long time, but I was flipping trough a cookbook today and saw a recipe for this bread and it sounded good. It had a recipe for a spread to go with it too. I made it and it is wonderful. Have you baked anything lately? Do you like using a bread maker?

This bread sounds so good. I am going to make it tomorrow. I have been obsessed with making bread this week. My mother-in-law just gave me her bread machine and so far this week I have made a rich white bread, sourdough bread and a banana nut bread. I cannot believe how easy it is! I am having so much fun using it!

lilybug that does sound really delicious. good for
you. the last time I baked was a total disaster.I
thought nobody could mess up with baking powder
biscuits but I did. they were dry and did not rise
and were just awful. the baking powder was fresh too.
so do not know what I did wrong. they were really
really awful.

That sounds really yummy. I want a bread maker so bad! I've not gotten one for years because for the longest time I had no self control at all when it came to bread. I've since reworked my eating habits, learned to love portion control so I think I'm ready to have one in the house and not go nuts. It's probly be like when I bought the crock-pot a few years ago, I don't think I cooked a meal in anything else for months, lol.

Gosh, that sounds so delicious! Would you be willing to part with the recipe? I have never made anything other than sourdough bread from a mix in the bread machine and that always turns out so yummy! Oh I hope you will share this recipe. Thanks so much! :D
