Since buying my Hamilton Beach bread maker, I’ve officially baked three loaves, and I can say this without hesitation: rosemary bread is my favorite (so far). Garlic butter and Cinnamon butter breads had their moments, but rosemary? Rosemary, babes, is THE FUCKING ONE. It’s so damn satisying without being loud, comforting without being boring, and it somehow makes my kitchen smell like I know what I’m doing. This loaf is the kind of bread you keep tearing pieces off of “just to taste”, (air quotes intended) then suddenly half of it is gone. It’s simple, fragrant, and dangerously easy to make, which honestly feels like the entire point of owning a bread machine in the first place.
It Smells So Damn Good🍞😭
