Easy Bread Squares Recipe Rating 5

There's no kneading or rolling out dough in this extra-easy yeast recipe. I like to serve generous slices alongside spaghetti.

Excellent recipe! I've made this twice now and it disappears immediately.

Today I brushed it with eggwhite/water and sprinkled poppy seeds on top prior to baking... YUM! Especially good with soft-boiled eggs.

Thank you!
