- 1-2/3 cups warm tap water
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 4-1/2 cups bread flour or regular
white flour
- 2 tablespoons dry milk powder
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
Measure the ingredients into the bread pan
in the order listed. Make a well in the
flour and sprinkle the yeast into it. Set
the machine to it's Rapid or Quick Cycle. On
my machine this lasts for 80 minutes, or 1
1/3 hours. Press Start, and let the machine
work it's magic. Remove the cooked bread
from the pan after baking and allow it to
cool before slicing.
This recipe has a texture very close to
hand-made bread. It is the recipe my family
eats most often, every day, in fact. It
won't rise up as high and fluffy as bread
mixed and cooked on the Standard Cycle. This
"lack" of kneading and rising is what makes
it's texture closer to hand-made. A very
good bread.
Makes a 2 pound loaf.
