Four Sandwich Bread Recipes for the Bread Machine
The Man of the House would argue that sandwiches are the perfect food. Sandwiches are great for school lunches, road trips, lunch and dinner.
However, not just any bread is good for sandwiches. The bread needs to be sturdy enough to hold everything together. Additionally, the bread’s flavor should meld nicely with the sandwich ingredients and not overpower everything.
With those factors in mind, here are four recipes for bread that works great in sandwiches.
Sour Milk Bread
I make this bread all the time! It doesn’t have a lot of ingredients so it’s fast to put together. The bread is just a little sweet and I like that. It also turns out perfectly every time.
I have to admit that we’ve had chicken salad sandwiches on sour milk bread for date night. I added diced, home-grown, red peppers to the salad and served it with white wine. It wasn’t traditional, but it was very nice.

This bread is soft but firm and has a flaky crust. You can use egg bread on everything from peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to grilled cheese sandwiches paired with tomato soup.
Rosemary Bread
This herbal bread is terrific when used in chicken or turkey sandwiches.
Black Rye Bread
This rye bread is a good pairing with meats like roast beef or pastrami.
I love your recipes! What do you use to slice your bread? I seem to have some slices thicker than the others, using a bread knife.
I use a bread knife too. I know there are guides to help with slicing, but I haven’t tried them.
I use an electric carving knife. It does a great job and quickly too
Stella, I have two bread guides – a wood one that measures wide slices and a plastic one (yard sale – 50ยข) for thinner slices. When the bread is warm I use an electric knife and the wood guide for nice fat slices that melt the butter and are heaven to eat. After the bread has cooled I use a bread knife and whichever guide is appropriate for our needs.

I have celiac disease and lymphotic colitis, I have bought rice flour and I am looking for a recipe using rice flour to make bread. Do you have any suggestions.
Hi Lynne, I’m sorry but I don’t have any recipes like that. I have experimented with King Arthur Flour’s gluten-free bread mix if that helps.
I do so enjoy your recipes! They turn out perfect every time! Do you by chance have a good molasses bread recipe? Thank you for your time!
I love molasses bread! Here are two really good recipes, Anadama Bread and Molasses Oatmeal Bread.
