Easy Breadmaker Recipes for
Homemade Bread
by Lynne Birch
When bread makers first came out years back people felt that all you
could use them for was plain white bread. Well that is not even close to
being true any more. There are now dozens of fantastic recipes available
for all kinds of bread. What you will find is that the ingredients you
use in a bread machine will be a little different than if you were
baking bread normally. The results are just as good however.
Below is a selection of recipes that are very simple to make, very
affordable, and most of all, deliciously healthy. They only take a few
minutes to prepare and the results will make everyone happy. So go ahead
and try them out. Crack open your breadmaker and give one of these yummy
recipes a try.
Basic White Bread
1 1/4 cups water
2 tbsp powdered milk
2 tbsp oil (I usually use canola)
1 tsp salt
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 tsp yeast
Just use the standard wet on the bottom dry on top mixing process. This
is delicious with butter and honey while it is still hot.
Grain & Honey Bread
3/4 cup warm water
2 tbsp honey (liquid or melted)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp lemon juice
3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (mixed grain flour is OK too)
1/2 cup rolled oats
2 tsp granulated yeast
Put the salt in the breadmaker first, then add all other ingredients
except the yeast, oats and flour. Add the oats and flour. Make a small
hole at the top of the dry ingredients for the yeast. Bake as usual.
Cheesy Buttermilk Bread
This yields a moist and tasty loaf. It also stores very well, but you'll
probably finish it before that even matters!
1 1/8 cups buttermilk
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
3/4 cup extra sharp chedder (grated)
3 cups bread flour
1 1/2 tsp bread machine yeast
Prepare as usual. All wet ingredients first, then the cheese, then dry
ingredients, and the yeast on top.
Oat Bread
Use natural rolled oats. Just put them in a pot with boiling water, and
then let them soak until they cool off. Then add the other ingredients
and proceed as usual.
1 cup rolled oats
11 fl. oz. water
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cups flour
1 tsp yeast
Baking bread is a wonderfully delicious way to add great nutrition to
you family's diet. Give the recipes a try and add some flavor to your
meals.
