Pumpernickel Bread



I don't eat pumpernickel bread often, so I can't say how this one is compared to others except that this bread is tasty! Even better when it was in the Reuben Sandwich form.

Like other bread mixes I've tried from King Arthur Flour, the only additional ingredients required were warm water and melted butter. When I took the bread out of my Breadman machine, the crust was nice and crunchy and the inside was soft and had a very pleasant sweet taste. The spacing and the chew were just the way I like it!

King Arthur

My inbox mysterious got newsletters from King Arthur Flour's website. I love it! While I am not that big of a bread eater, I love making bread. I ordered three bread mixes from their website and tried the golden potato yeast bread on my breadman machine yesterday.

I didn't have to do much monitoring on my machine with this mix. The only additional ingredients were warm water and 2 tablespoons of soft butter. The bread rose beautifully and baked well. I did not recall the taste of other potato breads in the past, so I cannot really say whether this is a good bread or not. The texture was very nice and the aroma was wonderful during baking. Moist, good chew and a pretty thin crust. I personally would prefer to have this bread to be sweeter, but I in general like anything sweeter. At $5.95 plus Tax a loaf, it is a bit expensive.
