Rapidrisewholewheatbreadbreadmachine Recipes

Steps:

• Add ingredients in the order recommended by your bread machine.
• Select white bread cycle.
• Can also be made with rapid or delayed cycles.

Steps:

• Follow directions for your bread machine.
• Instructions for my machine are: Add all ingredients to the baking pan in the order listed. (I mix the water and powdered milk and microwave them on high for 30 seconds before puting in the pan).
• Insert the baking pan into the oven chamber and secure pan.
• Select rapid bake setting and 2-pound loaf.
• Turn on machine.
• When cycle is complete, I put the loaf into a large zip lock bag, seal the bag, and put it on a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Steps:

• Simply put add ingredients in order shown and start on the rapid setting, light crust.

Steps:

• Place all of the ingredients in the breadmaker in the order listed. Set the machine for the regular cycle and light color. Start the machine and go somewhere and do something else.
• When the cycle is finished, removed the bread from the pan and let it cool on a rack. This is wonderful while still slightly warm with sweet unsalted butter, or refrigerate it and slice into thin even slices for sandwiches.

Steps:

• 1. With dough blade inserted, place flour, sugar, yeast and salt -- then process fro 5-10 seconds to combine.
• 2. Add butter and egg to mix and pulse.
• 3. Start the processor and slowly pour the warm water through the chute intil the dough forms a ball. All the water may not be needed. If the mix looks crumbly, then add bits of water. If the mix looks watery, then add some flour.
• 4. Once the ball is formed, process for another 1-2 minutes. The dough should be smooth and elastic.
• 5. Remove the dough from the processor bowl and form the dough into a ball. Let the dough ball sit for 10 minutes to rest.
• 5. Shape the dough as desired ( it can be shaped anyway but it must fit into a loaf pan).
• 6. Place into loaf pan ( spray with Baker's Joy first). Cover dough with a moist, warm, wrung out, cloth. Let dough rise, in pan,.
• until doubled . This will take anywhere from 30 - 60 minutes. Dough should be "proofed" before placing into preheated oven. The dough should , when pressed lightly, bounce back slowly ( a small indent may be left.).
• 7. Bake for 25-30 minutes , at 350 F or until a thermometer reads, when inserted deep into the dough, 195°F.
• 8. Let loaf cool in pan fro the first 10 minutes, then cool loaf on rack.

Steps:

• Simply add ingredients in order shown and start on the rapid setting. (My note: this is order for my B&D bread machine. I used the light crust setting.).
• Note from the original cook: I've had much better luck with the rapid setting than the whole wheat setting.
• Note from the original cook: Because whole wheat flour is heavy I use 2 pkg of yeast. If you only have one pkg, make this with the whole wheat setting or the setting that allows the most rise time.

Steps:

• Add ingredients in the order listed to bread mixing bowl.
• Using a dough hook, mix well and add more flour if needed so that the dough cleans the sides of the bowl (dough should be slightly tacky.
• Knead for 10 minutes.
• Shape into 2 to 3 loaves depending on the size of your pans. Add dough to sprayed pans.
• Cover with tented plastic or cloth and let rise for about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 for the last half hour of rising. It is ready to go in the oven when the dough is doubled in bulk.
• Turn oven down to 350 and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
• Take out of pans and let cool on wire rack.
• Brush tops with melted butter to keep crusts soft.
• additional ingredients may be added:.
• Eggs:.
• decrease water by 1/4 cup and add two beaten eggs. Eggs add flavor, liquid, color, structure, nutrients and tenderness to breads.
• Cracked wheat:.
• Add 1/2 cup uncooked cracked wheat for each 4 cups of flour. If using uncooked cracked wheat the bread will be somewhat crunchy. cooking the cracked wheat first will add a variety of texture without the crunch feel. Many people like to put oatlems or other cooked cereals into their bread. As a guidelin, use 1/2 cup or less per 4 cups of flour.
• Potatoes:.
• They add a sweet, rich flavor to breads. Add 1/2 cup to 4 cups flour and reduce water by 1/4 cup.
