"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""."
