FRENCH COUNTRYSIDE BREAD (BREAD MACHINE - ABM)

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to your bread machine as your directions instruct.
• Mine go like this:.
• Add liquid ingredients to bread pan.
• Add all dry ingredients, except yeast, to bread pan.
• Make a well in the dry ingredients and carefully add the yeast into the well.
• Select the "French" setting on your machine.
• Select crust color, if applicable.
• Press start!
• OVEN METHOD:.
• To make loaves in the oven, use the "Dough" cycle on your machine.
• When cycle is complete, punch dough down and divide into 2 equal parts.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a rectangle, about 10 x 15.
• Starting at the long side, roll each rectangle, jelly roll style, into a tight, long loaf. Seal seams and ends by pinching dough together.
• Place loaves seam sides down on a large, ungreased baking sheet. You may sprinkle some cornmeal or flour on the pan under where you'll be placing the loaves.
• Cover loaves with a clean towel and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until almost double in size.
• Preheat oven to 375*. Place a pan of hot water on the bottom rack of your oven. This will create steam inside the oven while the bread is baking to give you an authentic crust.
• Using a very sharp knife, carefully make 3 or 4 diagonal slashes in each loaf, cutting about 1/2 inch down into dough.
• If you choose, at this time you can carefully brush on an egg white glaze (one egg white beaten with 1 tbl. of water) and sprinkle with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried onion or garlic, etc., if desired.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes (or until loaves sound hollow when tapped) on middle oven rack.
• Cool on wire racks and serve warm.

BUTTERMILK BREAD-ABM

Steps:

• Do not use delayed bake feature.
• 1 1/2 lb.
• loaf.
• This recipe came with my Betty Crocker ABM and it's my favorite.
• After reading the review, it prompts me to mention that I often take loaves out of my machine a little early because I don't care for hard crusts either. I then take some milk and pour it over the sides of the bread, about 1 tbs. at a time. Butter works well too. This softens the crust a little.

Steps:

• 1. Measure and add liquid ingredients to the bread pan.
• 2. Measure and add dry ingredients (except yeast) to the bread pan.
• 3. Use your finger to form a well (hole) in the flour where you will pour the yeast. Yeast must NEVER come into contact with a liquid when you are adding ingredients. Measure teh yeast and carefully pour it into the well.

SMALL ULTRA-LIGHT HEALTHY FRENCH BREAD LOAF (ABM) BREAD MACHINE

Steps:

• Remove pan from Bread machine and place on a electronic kitchen scale, and zero scale.
• Weigh 210ml (210ml water weighs 210g) and rest of ingredients carefully into the pan, in the order listed (if you have the time, do have a read through of the notes :).
• Select French Loaf cycle (or Wholewheat/Wholemeal cycle if no French Loaf cycle available) and select crust/firmness if necessary required for your machine. (I feel that this loaf benefits from a fairly firm crust - as long as it's not burnt!).
• Start Machine.
• Notes:.
• Time listed is for the actual baking part of my machine's French Bread cycle. They vary by manufacturer.
• I took this recipe originally from a machine which had a 6-hour French loaf cycle but my machine makes a French loaf in 4 hours. My mum's does it in 2 3/4 hours. I've found that the results are pretty consistent regardless of machine, although you occasionally need to increase/decrease amount of yeast to marry the recipe to the 'rise' component of your machine's cycle.
• My machine has an un-overrideable 20 minute pre-heat before it does anything whatsoever whenever I use this cycle, so I need to take the following precautions so that the yeast doesn't make contact with any liquid before kneading starts which I recommend to you:.
• When pouring the water do try to pour gently trying to avoid slashing up sides.
• When adding the flour, do try to cover the water completely if possible.
• When adding the yeast, if necessary/inclined try making a dip (or 'well') in the top of the flour and carefully pouring the yeast into the dip/well.
• If using yeast in sachet form it's worth measuring it onto a teaspoon first and holding some of the sachet (depending on sachet size).
• Here in Europe most of our cooking is weight-based rather than volume based.
• A set of electronic kitchen scales with 1 gram graduations can be quite cheap if you hunt around and more than any other cooking and baking they really come into their own when it comes to bread-making, although I usually still use spoon measures for salt and yeast, and for liquid oil when I use it. Gives bomb-proof results, every single time!

CHEESY GLUTEN-FREE LOAF - LARGE (ABM)

Steps:

• Place the kneading paddle in the bread pan.
• Add the milk, oil, eggs, honey and cider vinegar to the bread pan.
• In a separate mixing bowl, stir together all remaining ingredients except the yeast. Add this well-incorporated mixture to the bread pan.
• Add the yeast to the bread pan last.
• Place the bread pan in the Cuisinart Convection Bread Maker.
• Press Menu and select Gluten Free.
• Press Crust and select Medium (or another setting of your choice).
• Press Loaf and select dough size.
• Press Start to mix, knead, rise and bake.
• While the dough is kneading, scrape the sides of the bread pan with a rubber spatula for best mixing results.
• When cycle is done, remove bread from machine and transfer to wire rack to cool, as cooled bread is easier to slice.
