BREAD MACHINE SANDWICH BREAD

Steps:

• Place the ingredients into the pan of a 1 ½ to 2 pound bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
• Select the program for basic white bread. Press Start.
• When the baking completes, remove the pan from the machine. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Remove the bread from the pan, sometimes this requires a shake to get the bread out of the pan. Set the loaf on a wire rack to cool.
• Store, in a bread box, bread bag or well wrapped on the counter for 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

BEST BREAD MACHINE BREAD

Steps:

• Place the water, sugar and yeast in the pan of the bread machine. Let the yeast dissolve and foam for 10 minutes. Add the oil, flour and salt to the yeast. Select Basic or White Bread setting, and press Start.

SOFTEST EVER BREAD MACHINE BREAD

Steps:

• Place the water, sugar and yeast in the pan of the bread machine.
• Let the yeast dissolve and foam for 10 minutes.
• Add the oil, flour and salt to the yeast.
• Select Basic or White Bread setting, and press Start.
• You can also use the dough cycle of your bread maker and then place in a greased loaf pan; punch down and let rise again and then bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until done.

LIGHT BREAD MACHINE SANDWICH BREAD

Steps:

• Heat water to 120 degrees. I use a meat thermometer to check the temperature. Do not guess at the temperature of your water. Too hot or too cold makes a difference.
• Add sugar to water and stir until dissolved. (Note: If you do not dissolve the sugar, you will not get the same result.).
• Add 2 packages of RAPID RISE yeast to the water. (Note: regular yeast will not give you the same result.).
• Let mixture sit for 10 minutes. That seems to be the best amount of time. Anything more than 20 minutes seems to have a negative effect on the results. If you skip this step you won't get the fluffiness you're looking for. This should be in ADDITION to your bread machine rise.
• Spray bread machine pan with non-stick spray.
• Pour yeast mixture into pan. (My bread machine directions say always pour dry ingredients in first, but this works for me).
• Add oil. (I've tried this recipe with 4T of oil and no butter and 4T of butter and no oil, but did not get the same result.).
• Add melted butter. Salted or unsalted butter doesn't seem to make a difference. If I use unsalted butter, I up the salt to 1 1/2 teaspoons.
• Add flour.
• Add beaten egg.
• Add salt.
• Select medium crust, white bread and 2-pound loaf cycle.
• Remove the bread from the bread pan after the cycle has finished and place on a rack so the bottom doesn't get soggy. Try to resist taking that first slice while it's still warm. Sometimes I do -- sometimes I don't. :-) Lasts about 2 weeks in a refrigerator. Lasts about 3 days if kept out.
• You can take this basic recipe and add whatever spices you enjoy. I've used garlic, oregano, basil, etc. I haven't tried cheese yet, but if someone out there does would love to know how it turns out!
