Bread recipes

I have recently bought a bread maker upon the advice of a neighbour.

I'm wondering if anyone knows any good recipes for bread, I'm not to adventurous when it comes to bread so something normal.

Thanks.

Re: Bread recipes

I just buy ready nix stuff from tescos and add milk instead of water and some extra lard. The sourbread and whole grain are nice

Google will find you loads. Perhaps at some point try a nice fruit loaf

Thanks.
Recipes for hand-made bread don’t automatically work in a bread maker because of the way you load the ingredients, as well as the method the machine uses. Your best bet is to go on eBay or Amazon and get a bread machine recipe book. A decent one will have had its recipes tested in a variety of machines, as they vary in performance.

Re: Bread recipes

The recipe I always go by for a Panasonic SD25xx in order is....

1.25 Teaspoon - Quick Active Yeast
375g - Strong White Flour
125g - Granary Flour
1.5 Tablespoon - Marvel / Milk Powder
1.25 Teaspoon - Salt
0.75 Tablespoon - Sugar
25g - Butter (Cubed)
350ml water.

Bake on Menu 1 as a white loaf (large) for 4 hours with Medium crust.

The Panasonic models seems to be the best going, I don't recall ever having a failed loaf.

Re: Bread recipes

The Panasonic machines are the nuts, no doubt. I ran one into the ground over 15 years of ownership, pretty much daily use. I loved it. What you need to be careful of is that different machines prefer ingredients loaded differently. The Panasonic is particularly known for being different. A decent bread machine recipe book will note any significant differences. The book I have (now buried somewhere) had a note on each recipe reminding the user to refer to the introduction for variations in method.

Re: Bread recipes

After tasting several recipes made in bread machines, I decided to stay with hand-made bread, chilled overnight after being knocked-back and shaped.

An hour out of the fridge the next day, or even 2 days later, and it's ready for the hot oven.

And don't trust dried yeast by adding it directly to the mix. I have had several packs and tubs, still well within use-by date, that failed to come alive. As a result, I start the yeast off in tepid water with a little sugar to confirm it will activate.

Re: Bread recipes

We managed to get some little books of recipes just for old bread maker. The maker also had a good selection of recipes. Many worked really well but the little stirrer gets left in loaf and it can be a little tricky to make. Ours only made a loaf that didn't last long.

The whole point of a bread machine is that people who don’t have time to do all that can still have fresh bread in the morning.

And in all the 15 years I ran my Panasonic I never once had a fail, despite using only dried, fast-action yeast in the recipe.

Re: Bread recipes

You can even load the machine the night before, set the delay and awake to the smell of fresh bread.


The only downside is some loafs only last a day as they get eaten?

Re: Bread recipes

You definitely eat a lot more bread. The slices are thicker as well, because you don’t have a machine to do the slicing for you.

due to the lack of preservatives they do not last much longer than a day whether you eat them or not before they go stale anyway
