One Baby Countryside corn stove owner, Cindy a self-proclaimed Tidy Tightwad,  let us know that she uses the top of her corn stove as the “perfect warm place” for allowing bread dough to rise.

Stop over on a day off, and you’re likely to see Cindy’s 5 Minute Artisan bread rising on the top of her corn stove nestled just off the kitchen.

Later, the smell of fresh baked bread fills the house, while the corn stove takes the chill out of the air. If you’ve never baked bread, this is the recipe for you! It is so simple.
