bread machine recipes and questions

[arabianequine]

Can gumpbread be put in bread machine? Do you have any other bread recipes that can go in the bread machine?


I have lost my booklet to bread machine long ago shortly after getting it....and tried making bread in it but always to dense. Put the boxed mix works fine but kinda speny so my machine just does not get used.

I've made the Gump's Bread recipe in a bread machine on the dough cycle. Then get it out, roll, shape and bake in the oven. It works fine. I do that with A LOT of breads. It saves time and effort to let the bread machine do the mixing and kneading.

I have several bread machine recipes posted here. You can put these in the machine and leave them through baking.:

I am agreement with Kim- use the machine for kneading, mixing and bake in the oven. If you add wheat gluten to your recipes you will see an incredible difference. It takes some experimenting, but when you get it right, you'll never buy bread again! Good luck!

Agreed on the wheat gluten. I add about 1 TBL gluten per cup of flour, especially with heavy flours like whole wheat, rye, pumpernickel. It improves the rise and the final texture of the loaves.

wheat gluten is the dough enhancer I posted in a thread before isnt it no one really responded to it?

that is a really good idea im getting it down my arms and hands get to hurting doing it by hand.

"dough enhancer" doesn't sound natural to me.... make sure you are finding wheat gluten, this is part of the flour that makes dough kind of sticky. The ingredients should say "wheat gluten" that's it. Using the bread machine for kneading makes the entire process easy and completely not messy! Try it, I know you will love it. Don't be afraid to open the machine and check the dough. I usually end up adding a bit of water, if it looks dry. The more you do it, the better you will be at it. No more store bought bread!

So I can add all the ingredients to this white sandwhich bread recipe in my bread machine on the dough cycle and start it?


Can I bake this in there too?

Can I use quick rise yeast or just regular?

Thank you!

Sorry, missed your question the other day.

Are you talking about this one?
White Sandwich Bread - [URL]http://millriverfarm.com/recipe.cfm?id=445&catname=Bread, Rolls, and Muffins[/URL]

It's not a bread machine recipe. You could use the dough cycle on the machine for it, but I would bake it in the oven. You could TRY to bake it in the machine, but recipes not specifically made for bread machines often fall in the machine baking cycle.

ETA: I use instant yeast (quick rise) in all recipes.

Does it matter in what order the ingredients go in the bread machine?....all the recipes I see say follow the machines instruction and I lost the booklet long ago

any help would be appreciated.
