Bake for 50 minutes, insert toothpick into the center to see if bread is done. Toothpick should come out mostly clean with a few crumbs on it. If not, put back into the oven and check every 5 minutes to see if done. In addition, if bread is browning too quickly after 30 minutes, cover loosely with aluminum foil.
