What can I do with a failed bread? So I attempted my first loaf of bread tonight and I blew it.  It's flat and way wide (I tried a free pan loaf).  It's about 2 inches tall and very spongy.  It has roughly the consistency of a corn muffin.  It's vaguely edible, but not very breadlike.

So is there anything culinary I can do with this or should I just chuck it on the compost pile?
I'd say stuffing, but if it doesn't taste good, then your stuffing won't taste good. Bread pudding? Blech. Bread crumbs? Maybe. Croutons? I don't know, probably not. 

Just write it off to experience, and see if the birds fancy it.
