bread machine recipes and questions

[Kim_NC]

For most bread machines it's wet ingredients first, then dry, and finally the yeast.

Thank you but I had already made it before you posted. I did put the flour and made a hole and put everything in the middle it turned out fine. I looked for wheat gluten at walmart since I was there might be to fancy for there I could not find it....I was thinking maybe at our health food store?

The loaf I made was on the dry side crumbly. dd said it tasted like sour dough?

I will try again this is the recipe I used this last time......


1 cup warm water
3 tblsps white sugar
1 1/2 tsps salt
3 tblsps oil
3 cups bread flour
2 1/4 tsps dry yeast

I did not see a basic white bread machine recipe on your site?

Thank you for your help!

Often "better" grocery stores will carry vital wheat gluten, or specialty shops. You can order it online from King Authur Flour. Here's a link:

I don't have a white bread recipe posted on our site for bread machines. But here is one I've used in the past.

Basic White Bread (Bread Machine)

1 1/4 cups water
2 Tbsp. dry powdered milk (see note below)
3 cups white bread flour
1 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. butter or oil
3 tsp. active dry yeast OR 2 tsp. fast rise yeast

Combine all wet ingredients in bread machine pan. Add all other ingredients, except yeast. Add yeast.
Bake in bread machine on Normal Cycle.

Note: If you do not have powdered milk or do not like to use it:
Reduce water to 1 cup
Add 1/4 cup milk
Omit powdered milk

I use the gumpbread recipe all the time and I use my breadmachine just for mixing and then I take the dough out as Kim_NC stated, but however, my bread machine is about 15 yrs old and on its last leg, so, DH said I might be able to buy a Stand-Up mixer since we wound up not having to buy a new pressure canner

I will try that recipe kim I have one similar but I did not have powdered milk on hand at the time so I went with this other one. I will look some more for the wheat gluten.

Ace I will try the gump bread too on the dough cycle I have not yet....I wanted bread machine recipe I could start and leave and it be done in a certain amount of time.....and I think it will cut better into slices using the bread machine.

Thank you both!
