How many cups are in a pound of flour? This bread sounds good but I'd like to only make enough for my husband and myself.

Editor's Note: Between 3 3/4 to 4 cups.

WOW - Robin, you must have a Huge oven and LOTS of energy. The bread sounds delicious, but don't think I will ever get around to making it. Joankay - Chesterfield, MI
