What to do with Anadama Bread
So you baked your first loaves in the BBA challenge. You have two fresh loaves of beautiful bread that are wafting wonderful smells through your home, and you just want to try it. Right now. Well go on. The problem comes once you’ve had that first warm slice – what do you do with the rest of it?
A lot of people seem to make it and give one loaf to a neighbour. I wouldn’t know a neighbour of mine if I passed them on the street. Now maybe that’s a bit sad, I am sure I’d like to get to know my neighbours – but knocking on their door one night with a loaf of bread in hand may put me firmly into the crazy neighbour spectrum.
So to start with I had mine fresh with raspberry jam slathered all over it.
A slice with jam, sorry for the crappy quality iPhone pics don't bring out the best
It was a wonderful way to start, I had this a couple of days for breakfast, and for lunch I had lovely Anadama bread sandwiches.

For the last couple of days we had it toasted mainly. First as garlic bread

And secondly as bruschetta,

Do you have any other ideas on how to use up Anadama bread? Leave me a comment.

Congratulations on making your first BBA bread! You can always slice it up and freeze it in a plastic bag. Then just take a couple of slices out, and they will thaw out in a couple of minutes for a great sandwich.
Make mini-loaves and get to know your neighbors! They will absolutely LOVE you and your bread!

Mmmm looks good. I’ve been doing lots of bread baking but haven’t got the BBA book. I’m working my way through Dan Lepard’s Handmade loaf – because I wanted to start with sourdough
its great fun. You are right that you need to be around for most of the day one time I went out and the loaves were escaping the tins when I returned – ooops. Look forward to hearing about your next bba experiment
