I remembered finding this recipe a few months ago and bought the KA Bakers Special Dry Milk and then I couldn't remember what recipe I bought it for! I was so excited to see this blog! I made the bread last night, and it turned out beautifully. I doubled the recipe with no problem, and I used my Kitchen Aid mixer with the dough attachment only and it worked wonderfully. I was suprised at how fast the dough rose for me! I also live in an extremely dry climate (Phoenix, AZ) and had to add the full 1 1/4 c water (2 1/2 since I doubled it) because the dough was very dry. I was delighted with the results. I grew up in PA and love Peppridge Farm bread, but I cannot find it here in AZ (one of the many products that are not carried here...). This is a wonderful substitute especially since it is able to be sliced so thinly and can still hold its own! Thanks again PJ for your wonderful blog! So happy this worked well for you, Anne, and brought back memories of that wonderful, moist Pepperidge Farm bread we grew up with... PJH
