I came across this English Muffin Loaf in an old church cookbook. So I had to try, as I just love english muffin bread! Toasted with butter and a yummy jam! :o) It is wonderful! Better than store bought of course, you know, because you made it yourself! lol And its easy...you don't need to be a bread maker to be able to make this!!!

In a large bowl, whisk together yeast, sugar, salt, soda and 3 c of flour, set aside. In a small sauce pan, heat together milk and water to 120 degrees. Can be done in the microwave too. Add wet ingredients to dry and beat well. Stir in remaining flour to make a stiff batter. Evenly divide batter between prepared pans. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 45 minutes.
