Frugality in baking of making bread with 1 cup of flour instead of with 4 or 6 cups as most basic recipes consist of and half pack of yeast. The portions are smaller, but the quality is quite the same as the 4 or 6 cups. They are good for just quick breakfast, afternoon tea break, or just for dinner rolls. Great for serving 2 people, singles or a family 4. Wonderful for toaster oven bakers.
