When I was in high school, we had a baking class and we had to bring all the necessary ingredients. We were formed into groups and assigned the different ingredients for the bread recipe. Unlike today bread machine recipes are very popular. I remember I always raised my hand to volunteer for the yeast as it was the least expensive (my mother had already bought a small can that would serve for the whole semester) and the others would bring the rest, taking turns in bringing the flour. I never understood why they didn’t just leave the whole sack of flour in the kitchen pantry. I guess it was because of the times… and the mice. Anyway, I remember we would first prepare the yeast for fermentation. That is, adding a teaspoon to a small bowl filled with about 1/4 cup of warm water, half hot and half cold, and sprinkling some sugar to aid the proofing. If the water was too hot, it would kill the yeast; and if it was too cold, it did not stimulate it leaving it flat and out. The yeast would be ready when it had already multiplied into a regular colony; it usually took about 5 minutes. If after the prescribed period nothing happened, then the baking teacher would tell us to throw it away as either the water was too hot or too cold and proceed to read the expiration date on the can of yeast that I brought. After a few trials, we had the hang of it.

Yeast is the leavening agent for most bread. It is what makes the dough rise and gives it that airy texture because yeast interacts with the sugar and produces good gaseous carbon dioxide bubbles. Anyway, times are so very different now. There’s still yeast, but the preparation time has gone since the world was introduced to the Bread Machine Recipes. The first time I used one, I was sort of sad because I missed watching the yeast grow. But then I got so busy that I finally appreciated the fact that it existed. Here is an Easy Bread Machine Recipes for all my fellow busy career people. Craft on!

Ingredients:

– 1 cup of warm water for the yeast to ferment nicely
– 3 tablespoons of white sugar
– 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
– 3 tablespoons of palm oil
– 3 cups of bread flour
– 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast

Directions:

– Place the water, sugar, salt, oil, bread flour and yeast into the pan of the bread machine.
– Bake on White Bread setting.
– Cool on wire racks before slicing.

Sourdough bread is a part of the staple diet in many parts of the world. The bread gets its name because of the sour and wheaty sort of flavor it has. The degree of sourness of the sourdough bread depends on many factors, such as the temperature, type of flour used, type of yeast used, and the baking cycle in the bread machine. The history of bread machine recipes is almost as old as bread itself. Here is a simple and savoury sourdough bread machine recipe that you can make at home in the bread machine.

Ingredients:

For the sourdough starter:

•  2 cups of wheat or all-purpose flour
•  2 teaspoons of sugar
•  1 packet of active dry yeast
•  2 cups of warm water (around 110F)

For the bread:

•  3 ½ cups of bread machine flour (or you can also use all-purpose flour)
•  2 tablespoons of sugar
•  2 teaspoons of salt
•  2 ¼ teaspoons of active bread machine yeast
•  ¾ cup of warm milk
•  1 ½ tablespoons of butter
•  1 cup of sourdough starter

Method:

•  The most important part of sourdough bread is the right preparation of the starter, which   needs to be prepared at least a week before you want to make the bread.
•  To prepare the starter, dissolve the yeast in ½ cup of warm water.
•  Take a deep jar, mix the other ingredients, and whisk in the yeast.
•  Cover with a cheesecloth and let it rest for about a week before using.
•  If you notice any liquid on top of the starter at the end of the week, it is just Hooch and you can stir it back in before use.
•  To start making your bread, take one cup of the week old starter and let it rest for some time before using.
•  Clean and dry the bread machine pan and put 1 cup of flour, yeast, salt, butter and sugar into it. Select the warm cycle setting and choose the type of crust you want.
•  Start the machine and while it is running, slowly add the milk and the sourdough starter.
•  Also add the softened butter
•  Add the rest of the flour (2 ½ cups) on the top of the wet mix. This will prevent the liquid from sloshing all over.
•  Cover the bread pan and let the machine run its full cycle while you prepare soup and salad to go with the bread.
•  Once the cycle is done, remove the bread from the bread pan and cut in slices to serve.

Rye is a grain, which looks like wheat but has many additional nutritional properties. Rye is a good source of dietary fibers, magnesium and Vitamin B1. The intake of rye is good for a persons digestive health and helps reduce cholesterol. There are many variations of the rye bread recipe and here is a simple yet delicious rye bread recipe bread machine made to make at home and enjoy.

On your shopping list:

• Water at room temperature -1 ½ cups
• Olive oil or butter – 80ml
• Table salt – 2-2 ¼ teaspoon (this is crucial to limit the rise of yeast)
• Sugar – ½ cup (this is necessary for yeast rising)
• Rye bread flour – 4 cups (you can also use a mix of wheat , refined and rye flour if you want to experiment)
• Caraway seeds – ½ cup (adds the crunch)
• Dried black bean flakes – ½ cup
• MSG-  1 tablespoon (for taste but you can skip it)
• Pepper (black or white) – 1 teaspoon
• Ground herbs – 1 teaspoon
• Active dry and fresh yeast – 3 tablespoons

Preparations

• Check the bread pan in the bread machine and make sure that its free of contaminants.
• There will be a blade attached to the bottom of the pan – make sure it is clean as well.
• When you are using the bread machine, it will warm the ingredients and bring them to an even temperature. However, it helps if you use all the ingredients at room temperature and not too warm.
• Put the wet ingredients such as water and oil (fat) in the bread bucket first. This will prevent the liquid from spattering the machines sides.
• Now add the flour, salt, sugar, ¼-cup caraway seeds, dried black bean flakes, pepper, and the grounder herbs on top of the liquids.
• Add the yeast on top and close the lid of the bread bucket.
• Before activating the bread machine set the settings on the bread machine for the type of crust you want.
• The bread machine will knead the dough, let it rest, and knead again before baking. You can sprinkle the rest of the caraway seeds once the dough is kneaded and ready to be baked.
• Once the bread is done, take it out of the bread bucket and let it cool slightly before cutting into slices.
• You can also add some garlic and nutmeg for a different flavour.

If you’re like me, you’ve looked through dozens of bread machine recipes in search of that perfect sourdough bread machine recipe. In my own experience, most bread machine recipes have been great, except when it comes to sourdough. Why’s it so challenging to find just one fantastic sourdough bread machine recipe? Come here, lean in close, and I’ll tell you a little secret. They’re not all bad, I have found a fantastic recipe for sourdough using a bread machine, and I’ll share it with you, under one condition.

That condition is that you have to promise to share this sourdough bread machine recipe with your friends, or at the very least make it for them whenever they ask (As long as they ask nicely!) I love crusty breads to dip into a warm, hearty bowl of soup. I have heard of people who swear by dipping their crusty breads into water, milk, and even wine. However you choose to enjoy it is up to you.

Sourdough Starter

• 1 1/2 tsp of bread machine yeast, or quick active dry yeast.
• 4 cups of water (Warm, but not hot.)
• 3 cups of flour
• 4 tsp of sugar

Bread

• 1/2 a cup of water
• 3 cups of all-purpose flour (You can also find flour specially meant for baking bread.)
• 2 tbsp of sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp of sale
• 1 tsp of bread machine yeast, or quick active dry yeast.

Preparation Instructions

1. As mentioned, you will need to prepare the starter a week ahead of time. Start by dissolving the yeast in the warm water, and then add the rest of the ingredients for the sourdough starter. Mix everything together very thoroughly until evenly blended. Cover with a towel and allow it to sit on the counter at room temperature undisturbed for a week. Once it has a sour smell and many little bubbles, it’s ready to be refrigerated, where it can wait until you’re ready to make the bread.
2. Measure 1 cup of your sourdough starter and place it in the bread machine, then add the rest of the ingredients from the “Bread” section above. Some machines will offer you a particular order to put in the ingredients. I have found that it doesn’t make a huge difference but it may be worth looking into for your partcular model of bread machine.
3. Use “Basic” or “Normal” setting (Will vary by machine.) and set the crust to light. Cooking time will vary depending on your machine, but your work is all done.

Allow a few minutes for the bread to cool, this gives you time to throw together your favourite spinich dip or just to enjoy the amazing aromas that are filling your home.
