Programmable Bread Baking-Breakfast Bread Recipe
Bread
Easy Baking and Yummy Eating
Before I had breadmaker and a machine I use to make my recipe by hand. It took a lot of time to mix and knead the dough for my coffee cake and raisin toast. This meant getting up early to prepare the dough for my recipe. Then one year I was given a programmable baking machine and soon discovered easy it was to place the ingredients into my machine the night before. In the morning all I had to do to make my breakfast was take it out and bake it in the oven. I also make it for the morning on a delayed bake setting and wake up to the smell of fresh baking in the morning. I love to bake and now my job is so much easier especially in the morning when things always seem a bit rushed.
My baking machine is one of the best kitchen appliance I have. When I use it to make breakfast I place the ingredients in the night before, set it for delayed baking and have fresh baked goods for breakfast. It is the easiest way to make bread and dough I have ever found. The breakfast tricks I have are easy to prepare and my family enjoys eating them for breakfast. The raisins and cracked wheat for a healthy and nutritious part of breakfast. There are many variation you may want to try and baking in the machine is as simple as it gets.
There have been time when I didn't feel like measuring out the ingredients, so I purchased boxed mixes that only require a little water to prepare. Then I decided to try to make the mixes myself. Now I measure the ingredients out into zipper bags for my recipe. I label them with the name, the amount of water, and oil needed, and place a packet of yeast inside the bag. My husband loves to bake since I have been making my own mixes. All he needs to do is dump the mix, water and oil in the machine and turn it to the correct setting.
