How much flour should be used for a bread-machine recipe?
638482
I tried my own recipes/published and was never happy. Bob's Red Mill Homemade Wonderful Bread Mix makes a big loaf very superior to any commercial loaf I've found. Although I do put the mix into the bread machine to mix and rise, I transfer it to a loaf pan and finish it off in the oven according to the package instructions. You must cook it a lot longer than a regular bread machine baking cycle, according to the package instructions, and cover with foil to prevent crust burn. I don't separate the eggs, just use the whole egg. I substitute coconut oil for the butter. Wetting you fingers and smoothing out the top will really make a visual difference too. I keep this gluten free flour on hand for lots of other purposes. Breading fried chicken and some recipes you were using before that may call for a small amount of flour and this substitutes great. Good luck on your GF journey.

Don't modify how much the recipe calls for. We use Bob Mills gluten free package recipes and never had a problem.

sorry, I don't have a bread machine. I always mix it with what Bob's recipe says and add walnuts and raisins.I also put in cinnamon. Yummy. Good luck.

I don't even have a bread machine and mix the whole recipe by hand. It turns out just fine. I do, however, mix the yeast in the warm water and add a teaspoon of sugar (yeast grows better in sugar water). The bread made with this mix is our favorite and has always turned out just great. For a bread machine, use the whole bag and follow the recipe. I do cover the top with foil in the last 20 minutes or so. Note: I always mix the wet ingredients together first, add half the bread mix, stir together, then add the rest of the mix and stir it together.

If you are using Bob's Red Mill Gluten free bread mix you do not add any flour it is in the mix already. You will need to add eggs, milk, oil, and 1teaspoon of cider vinegar. The directions are on the package. Follow your Bread machines instructions and the package instructions. It makes a good size loaf of bread, which is very tasty and very filling.

The package has all the flour and yeast that you need. Just follow the instructions for "Bread Machine" on the back of the package, basically adding the wet ingredients. The mixed "dough" will look more like quick bread than regular bread dough, but don't add any flour. I have had friends who did this with bad results.

I adapted the Zojorushi1 lb bread maker booklet recipe for 100% whole wheat bread - 7/8 C WATER, 1 1/2 cups ORGANIC WHOLE WHEAT BREAD FLOUR, 1 CUP ORGANIC WHOLE FLOUR/OR 1 CUP MIXED ORGANIC MIXED GRAINS SUCH AS RYE, WHEAT BERRIES, 1/4 CUP ORGANIC WHEAT GERM; PINCH SALT, 1 TSP DRY YEAST. Choose regular/firm setting. If you add ingredients, chop coarsely nuts or "larger" dried fruits such as dates & apricots; add whole dried fruit such as cranberries, raisins -- & do not exceed 1/2 cup total. Add when the machine prompts you (beeps). Note with no white bread flour the loaf will be dense, which is my preference; the booklet has a multigrain recipe, I haven't tried it, but I'm sure it's very good.

I don't know if you can purchase a new manual online, but King Arthur Flour may be able to answer any question you have. It is not a very complicated machine...for bread....stay within 75- 85 degrees...for yoghurt follow the recipe you have. I love this proofer...it really has made a difference in my bread making.

I only use my machine to make gluten free bread for my son. I found that it works best if I mix the ingredients prior to putting them in the machine. I have also found that you have to use the correct amount of yeast for your altitude I have just played around to figure out what works beat for me. Also with your yeast add some sugar to help activate it (you would have to google how much to use as I don't measure and just eyeball it) and do not open you machine until it has finished cooking. This is what I found has worked to make the bread I make come out better.

I use Laura Brody's Bread Machine Baking recipe book & the recipes are adapted for speciific bread machines. For the large oster, I always use 2 1/2 tsp yeast to 3 C flour. King Arthur flour is great!

I use bread machine yeast. It comes in a small jar and I use about a teaspoon more than the recipes call for.

Denice, I have used recipes i found online. I find that to be the best way. There are many cooking sites. You might want to type "best bread machine recipes" in the search bar and you will see what pops up. It's really kind of an experimental thing, as is everything in life.

I use 5 minutes a day bread recipes, and I shape and proof my loves on the pans according to recipies and they come out perfect every time. I assume any recipe for your final proof will work. Just make sure you generously flour the pan.

I don't know if you already did this, but adding gluten flour to whole wheat recipes helps develop structure. Most whole grain recipies include about 1.5 tablespoons gluten flour to 3 cups whole wheat flour. Try using in published bread machine recipe for whole wheat bread and follow it precisely first time out. If it comes out okay, then you can experiment a bit.

It depends on your ingredients, but I think it can save you money. The recipes all take about 4 cups of flour. A 5 lb bag of flour has 20 cups, so you can get 5 loaves. Depending the cost of your flour and if you buy yeast in bulk on Amazon, I think you could make loaves for about $1.50 or less. It also depends on what other ingredients you use. You'll need about 1.5 TBSP butter or oil for each loaf as well as about 2 TBSP sugar, honey or molasses and 1.5 tsp salt.

Angel: New Breadman Ultimate Plus:Purchased new machine on Amazon, baked with reg flour and came out great, twice tried Red Mill gluten free bread mix following the instuctions exactly but both came out larger than 1/1/2 lb and raw in the center of the loaf. Anyone have any suggestions?

I usually mix about 4 cups of flour in my bread recipe and it works fine. Last time I doubled my recipe and it mixed up OK, but there was straining so I think it was too much.

No, I made bread by hand only with this flour. I do not own a bread machine. My favorite recipe was where you let the majority of the flour soak over night. I would soak 3 cups of flour in 1 cup warm water(sometimes throwing in a handful of oatmeal or flax) then the next morning add the rest of the ingredients. It also seemed to rise better but I did knead for 15 minutes. Totally flour I used in the recipe was approx. 4 cups with a bit more for kneading. I got 2 8x5 loaves out of it. I found the recipe via google.
