Classic Bread Recipe from Chef Don McMillan

August 18, 2017 By Julie Lanford MPH, RD, CSO, LDN

Doesn’t this bread look beautiful? It’s hard to believe that he made it right there. I obviously am not a bread maker. The only time I’ve made it is in my breadmaker, which is lovely, but the different shapes that the class was able to make is really fun.

The recipe calls for white flour and I know many readers will want to know about whole wheat. Chef Don said that you can use whole wheat, but probably start with 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white. You can keep experimenting with it until you find a way that works for you. If you have tips on making whole wheat bread, let me know!
