The flour if you go for the shop brand is about 60p for Strong White or about £1 for brown or wholemeal (each bag will do 2-3 large loaves).. I tend to do a mix (1 cup white to two brown)
Most shops also sell ready made kilo packs of sunflower/rye/wholemeal bread where you just add the water (lidl and aldi have them)
You can also add olive oil and some sundried tomatos if you want an italian style bread..
I also use it for making Doughnut or Pizza doughs (the breadmaker has a mix/rise setting that does not cook) |
Thanks Kymmy, I think i'll have a go. Its a bit hard baking and cooking with 3 jobs and 2 homes but I reckon I'll be able to fit it in somwehere
The italian style bread sounds amazing, I brought back a kilo of sun dried tomatoes from Turkey a few weeks back to I will definitely be having a go at that!
