Recipe by Debra47: Italian Onion Bread

Recipe turned out well. Made it in a food processor. Baked at 350F for 40 minutes.
Loaf is a little small for a 9x5 pan. Use a smaller one.
Figured out why an Italian loaf is called an Italian loaf. The lack of butter causes that firmer crust that is signature in the loaves.

Good to know about the butter in an Italian loaf - it helps to understand what the ingredients bring to the end product

I always knew fat caused a softer crumb but just didn't put it together, mentally, with an effect on the crust until I made several Italian loaves and just happened to notice the absence of butter. Then on my next standard loaf it was all apparent.
