Breadmaker Recipes

I have tried different doughs for CINNAMON BUNS, this is our favorite:

Cinnamon Buns

1 cup water
2 teaspoon skim milk powder
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp butter
3 teaspoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cup white flour
1 teaspoon yeast

Process dough, use 1/3 for a mini white loaf of bread. For Cinnamon buns, I roll rest of dough to about 1/2 inch, spread a thick layer of butter, and brown sugar over it, raisins/pecans optional. Sprinkle a good layer of cinnamon on top. Roll and slice into small Cinnamon buns. Place in a pan with more butter and sugar on bottom. Let it rise 45 minutes. Bake at 350F with bread for 20 minutes.

Pretzels

1 cup beer
1 tbsp butter
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 2/3 cup white flour
3/4 teaspoon yeast

Process dough. Roll into a 14"x9" rectangle cut into 18 - 14"x1/2" strips. Gently roll each strip into a rope, Form into pretzels (curve ends of each rope to make a circle, cross ends at top, twist ends once and lay over bottom of circle). Place on greased baking sheets

DO NOT LET RISE!

Combine lightly beaten egg and 1 tablespoon water, brush on pretzels. Sprinkle with coarse salt or sesame seeds. (Or dip in butter and sprinkle with Cinnamon and sugar)

Bake at 350 for 18 - 20 minutes.

Bob's Honey Grain Breadmaker Bread

3/4 cup warm water (between 10 - 12 oz. no more)
2 tablespoons liquid honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup quick rolled oats
2 teaspoons granulated yeast

Put salt in the bottom of breadmaker and add all other ingredients except the yeast, oats and flour. Add the oats and flour. Make a well in the top of the dry ingredients and put in the yeast. Process.

You can make a yummy white loaf by substituting white flour for the whole wheat. Nice texture to both breads. We are at sea level, so if you are at an elevation you can experiment with the water amounts until you get the texture and weight you like.

1 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons powdered milk
2 tablespoons oil (l usually use canola)
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/4 cups all purpose flour

Wholemeal

1 1/4 cups water

Yeast quantities are correct using "Bread machine yeast" if you use ordinary "dried yeast" increase quantities by 1/4 teaspoon.
