In preparation to bake the bread:
* prepare loaf pans with baking spray.
*pour batter into prepared pan's. With bread batter I usually fill the pans a little more than halfway. It's usually in between halfway and 3/4's the way full.
* once your batter is in the pans top it with our delicious crumb coat and place it in the oven to bake.
**Bake Large Loaf Pans for about 1hr - or more. It depends on the oven. Just until the top is firm and you can stick a knife in the middle in the center and it comes out clean.
Bake Small loaf pans for about 45 mins to 50 mins or until fully baked. Or until you can stick a knife in the center and it comes out clean.
Once your bread is baked, take it out of the oven and let it cool completely.
