artichoke nut bread dilemma, Member loisdrake

It isn't baked yet, but according to the recipe it says""pour into loaf pans"". Note, it doesn't pour... you have to wrestle it out of the bowl into the pans. I added a wee bit more milk, can't wait to see it baked. Note, I'm an old hand in the kitchen and live by Julia Child's maxim ""measure, measure, measure"".
