So as you know I have been enjoying my wondermill for a few months now. Well I am trying things out and building up my recipe arsenal. I have finally came up with a great loaf or Bun recipe. The bread comes out soft and moist. Now keep in mind I am no kneading expert as of yet so I still use my Sunbeam bread maker to mix and kneed. But this is what I use:
Loaf Bread or Bun Recipe
4 cups Flour( fresh milled hard white or hard red wheat )
1 1/2 cup warm water
1 egg
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup butter
2 TSP Honey\
1 packet Dry Yeast(not sure of exact amount cause I just buy packets)
Now once the bread is done kneading and rising I pour on the floured counter top and form into my loaf shape or hamburger buns. It makes either 2 loaves of bread or about 9- 12 burger buns. I then place in greased loaf pan or cookie sheet and place a damp cloth on and let it proof for about 20- 30 more minutes while I preheat the oven for 350 degrees. I just bake until golden brown which I think is about 25 mins or so. depends on your oven I guess. Delicious!
Your bread looks yummy! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. :-)
ReplyDeleteI always use 1 tablespoon of yeast in place of one packet. I think I had read that sometime. Anyway it works for me. I buy my yeast in bulk (1 lb packages) at our health food store. I think it is quite a lot cheaper that way.
Thanks for the Info Abbi. I just wasn't sure about the yeast. I am slowly changing over how I shop for my food items since we starting making our own bread. I have always bought my beans and rice in bulk and a few other items but recently I started getting honey, maple syrup, and baking powder as well. We got to take it one step at a time. I am just happy I am making the changes at last.
