I have been neglecting the bread machine lately so I made some french bread dough on the dough cycle.
11/2 water
41/2 cups white bread flour
1 tsp sugar
11/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp yeast (I used fast acting yeast)
Put in to bread machine in above order, set to the dough setting.
After dough is done...
I take it out of the machine and knead it a couple more times and divide it into two pieces. Form into long loaf put on baking tray and brush a little bit of water on top of the bread (this will make the crust turn a nice brown.
Put in oven at 400 for about 40 mins.
They sould sound hollow when tapped.
We enjoyed the first loave as a french bread pizza. I sliced it sideways all the way down and then cut that in half for 4 pizzas. We used the other loaf as french toast the next day.
Enjoy
