How do you adjust baking time for loaf pans?
This depends on exactly how large your pans are. We would suggest baking one test loaf first, and reducing the oven temperature about 25 degrees from the temperature in the recipe. Then we would bake for about 25 minutes, then check with a toothpick every five minutes after that.
