Automatic Bread Machine Questions


Automatic Bread Machine
I need an automatic bread machine recipe?

My problem is I only have 1 C of white flour

I do have a LOT of whole wheat flour but haven’t found a wheat recipe that I can use. I have no honey in the house, no maple syrup.

I only have 1 shot at this to get a loaf of bread..
I ended up finding a recipe online.

And the type of bread machine doesn’t make any difference but I forgot to say I have a little 1lb machine LOL

Well, do you have any molasses ? I don’t have a recipe in front of me but, if you have a wheat recipe in front of you, I would just take my chances and use the white flour and make up the difference in wheat flour and use the molasses instead of honey. What do you have to lose. Either it turns out or not.

A Guide to Bread Machines

As you know, bread making by hand is not a simple process. There are plenty of stirring, mixing, and kneading required. Stirring and kneading can be relatively painless for bread dough with lots of eggs and butter to soften it up. But for tougher doughs, the manual labor involved could turn into a real chore. That’s where a bread machine will really ease things up. A well built bread machine will automatically handle all the required dirty work, leaving you the creative work. Best of all, it does not take much other than the ability to push a few buttons to work a bread machine the way you want.

When considering a bread machine, it’s a good idea to get familiar with its features and capabilities. Have an idea of how much you are looking to spend, these machines can run anywhere from below $60 to over $180, according to what brand, and what features you are looking for. Some have timers and delay buttons, while some don’t, there is also the option of a crust setting which enables you to have light, medium, or dark crust on your bread loaf. You also need to know what type of breads you will be baking in your machine. If you’re a big fan of making wheat bread, make sure that the bread machine your purchase has a cycle for it. Some bread machines have an extra special cycle for baking cakes and jams. Before deciding to purchase a bread machine, make sure that it has all the features you want and have enough cycles for all your baking needs. It’ also a good idea to check for a cool down cycle, to prevent your bread loaf from becoming soggy, if you can’t be there to remove it after the baking process is over. Most machines have a keep warm cycle to prevent sogginess, but some have a tendency to dry up the bread.

There are some downsides to bread machines, some have special compartments for nuts and fruits, while although a great idea, may sometimes cause clogging, so it would be wise to watch for this and keep compartments clean. You can purchase bread machines that will produce different sizes and shapes of loaves, square, round and the traditional rectangle. Something else to look for in a bread machine is how easy it is to remove the bread ban for cleanup. To maintain your bread machine, it’s good practice to check for the build up of crumbs. You do not have to do this often. I would suggest after every use, so as not to let the crumbs accumulate.

More so than other appliances in your kitchen, you should consider the weight and size of the bread machine. It’s best to buy the bread machine suitable for your purpose and the size of your kitchen. The last thing you want is to have a huge machine taking up a good quarter of the countertop. Make sure your machine comes with a manual giving you instructions for operating your bread machine, because there are some models on the market that don’t. You can choose to go for the cheaper model or the more expensive, the choice is up to you, but just remember, you get what you pay for.
