EASY WHITE BREAD FOR LARGE 13" PULLMAN PAN

Steps:

• Select Dough setting on your bread machine.
• Put ingredients in the machine in the order suggested by your machine manufacturer. Let rise. about 90 minutes, until double in size.
• Meanwhile, generously butter your Pullman Pan and lid.
• Remove dough from machine. Handle dough with greased hands. Form into a log approximately 12-13 inches long. Place in pan, pressing the ends into corners and pan edges.
• Place lid on, leaving open about an inch so you can peek.
• Let rise until about 2/3 full, or about an inch and a half from the pan top. About 60 minutes. Near the end of the rising time, preheat your oven to 350.
• Close lid fully. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove lid. Bake for another 15-20 minutes until golden brown or desired crust color is achieved.
• Internal temp of bread should be 190 f when tested with an instant read thermometer.
• Remove from pan to rack. If desired, brush crust with butter for a softer crust. Let cool before slicing. Store in airtight bag.

VANILLA RAISIN BREAD (ABM)

Steps:

• Select basic or SWEET setting.
• Special Notes: The recipe calls for 2 tsp of yeast, but I find this way too much yeast- blows the top off the machine!
• This makes a 1 1/2 lb loaf which basically fills my 2 lb machine.
• DO use pure vanilla extract for best results.
• If you don't have the time to soak the raisins ahead of time (I never do) just microwave the raisins and vanilla for 1 minute on high or med-high in a micro-safe bowl.

OH MY GARLIC! BREAD (ABM)

Steps:

• Add ingredients according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Set your machine for the Rapid, Delay, White or dough cycle and start.
• Add the herbs at the addition beep if you want them to remain reasonably whole.
• For the best flavor, serve this bread warm.
• If you choose the dough cycle you may shape it anyway you like, bale it on a standard 9x5 bread pan or shape the dough into buns for oven baking.

ARGENTINE CHIMICHURRI BREAD (ABM)

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in order suggested by bread machine manual, process on bread cycle.
• Or -- process on dough cycle, remove dough, place in well oiled loaf pan, cover, let rise until doubled (about 30-45 min.), bake at 400 until golden brown,(about 20-25 min.) remove from oven, rub top with butter.

CHEESY & SEEDY JALAPENO BREAD (ABM)

Steps:

• Place yeast, flour, seeds, oatmeal, salt, sugar, oil, and water in bread machine according to manufacturer's directions.
• When cycle is complete, remove dough, and knread 1 cup cheese and jalapenos (well drained and dried) into dough. I make the process easier by taking chunks of the dough and placing them into a bowl, a couple at a time, topping with cheese and jalapenos, and repeating until all dough, cheese, and jalapenos are gone - and then gently kneading.
• Form into a loaf, and place into a lined 9x5 bread pan (I line mine with parchment paper.) Alternatively, you could grease and flour the pan - just be aware that the cheese can stick really well, so it's best to line the pan! Top with shredded cheddar and additional grains/oatmeal.
• Allow loaf to rise until doubled, approximately 45 minutes. Set oven to 375°F When loaf is doubled, bake for 35-45 minutes, until browned and until the loaf sounds hollow when you knock on the bottom of it.
