Bread Makers
« on: December 19, 2003, 11:30:27 PM »
Anyone have some great bread recipes for bread makers? We bought a brand new breadmaker today for £10 marked down from £25. Couldn't believe the price!!

It came with some recipes but l am also looking for some different kind of breads too!

Any ideas?

Bread is the one thing I don't usually make...though I am getting the hang of the yeast thing.  Always wanted a bread maker though...so let me know how it comes out.  Our Uncle Vicar man always used to send a loaf or two of bread home in the UK..v tasty!

Trish my mother used to have one and made the most fantastic oatmeal bread.  You make that and cut it for toast with some apple butter on it. Great for french toast too.   Ooooo scrumptious.  Is the recipe in there with the bread maker you bought?

I have a breadmaker but haven't used it much lately. I love the taste of fresh made bread but just don't think to ever make any. ::) I have a recipe somewhere for some really fantastic jalapeno cheese bread..yum. :P

A little bird has told me that Father Christmas is bringing me a breadmaker for Christmas, and I'm getting really excited!

Do share your recipe for jalapeño cheese bread, if you can find it, Melissa!

I got a pretty nice book from my local Sussex Stationers bookstore (I think they're also called British Bookshops).  It's called Bread Machine by Jennie Shapter.  I  think it's a really good book.  It shows all the recipes in three sizes, depending on your machine size.  And it also has a ton of additional information like glazes, sourdoughs, troubleshooting and the different types of flour.  It also shows recipes for breads that you just make in the machine on the dough setting -- then bake in the oven -- usually because it's something unique, like croissants or breadsticks.  
And the best part?  Only cost £4.99!

Might be worthwhile perusing your local bookshop!

That's great info, Lisa!  We've got a Sussex Stationers here in Lewes, too.  Will go out and get myself a copy tomorrow!

PS.  Perhaps we ought to form a Sussex Chapter of "Breadheads Autonomous"?!!

Brilliant!  Many thanks, Celtic.

And yes, I got The Breadmaker, Melissa, and am boring everybody to death about it!  Thanks for looking for the recipe.

Okay I have made the jalapeno cheese bread (v scrummy despite it being on my not to make for a long long time list along with corn chowder post stomach flu menu.)

The bread was great just remember to adjust peppers to taste.  I used a mix of jack and strong cheddar.

I have also made banana bread and a whole grain/nut one and am now using it to make a Peasant Loaf.  My next mission is to make a baquette...dough setting then bake in oven. Then maybe a sourdough or bigo starter one.

Need a baking stone first though.

Anyone still using theirs or has it been relgated to the land of never used kitchen equipment?  I love mine...though the bread goes off fast, but that's because it's real bread. ;D

I highly recommend The Bread Bible and The Bread Lover's Bread Machine books by Beth Hensperger....she won a James Bread Award--she's good.
