Bread Recipe Part 2 of 2

[Guest guest]

First of, I typed this recipe exactly how it is in Bette's book. At the end I

will show you how I make it vegan and lower in fat.

Place ingredients in the bread machine in the order suggested by your machine

manual. Use the setting for white bread with medium crust.

 

VARIATIONS:

 

LEMON-POPPY SEED: For each cup of mix used, add 1 tsp. dried lemon peel and 1

tsp. poppy seeds to the dry ingredients.

 

QUINOA BREAD: For each cup of mix used, add 1 T. quinoa flour to the dry

ingredients and 1 tsp. honey to the wet ingredients.

 

ALMOND BREAD: For each cup of mix used, add 1 1/2 T. almond meal to the dry

ingredients and 1/2 tsp. almond flavor to the wet ingredients.

 

CINNAMON NUT: For each cup of mix used, add 1/2 tsp. cinnamon to the dry

ingredients and stir in 2 T. chopped nuts after the dough is mixed when

baking by hand; when using a bread machine, add the nuts when the machine

manual suggests.

 

SESAME BEAN BREAD: For each cup of mix used, add 1 T. toasted sesame seeds to

the dry ingredients and 1 tsp. molasses to the wet ingredients.

 

Tracy's Notes:

I have found that anytime I am making gf bread it works better to mix the

flour and yeast together before I add the liquid stuff. Otherwise, I get

clumps of yeast throughout the loaf.

 

Okay, I use flax meal for the eggs. I boil 1 c. of water and add 1 T. flax

meal. Let it sit for 5 minutes and use it in place of eggs. I always make

the large loaf and I use 1/2 c. of the flax meal per loaf.

 

I use lemon juice for the vinegar.

 

I DO NOT use any margarine or butter. I usually will pour a little bit of

liquid lecithen in the bread pan (under a tsp.). I always use water instead

of nondairy milk but you could add that if you want to.

 

My bread machine has a quick bread cycle and that is what I use. My quick

bread cycyle only has one rising time.This always comes out excellent. If you

do not have a bread machine and want the instructions to make it by hand let

me know and I will type them out. I have never been able to make the bread by

hand or any gf bread for that matter. It just never turns out as well as in

the machine.

 

I usually let it cool completely and then put it in a freezer bag on the

counter. The next day I slice it in slices and put it back in the freezer bag

and stick it in the freezer.

 

Let me know if you have any questions!
