5. Sweet –
The Sweet bread program is specifically designed to bake breads
with high amounts of sugar, fats and proteins. These added ingredients
tend to increase the height and browning of the finished loaves.
6. Gluten-Free –
Since gluten is found in most flours used in traditional bread
baking, the ingredients to create gluten-free breads are unique. While they
are “yeast breads,” the doughs are generally wet and often have a
batter-like consistency. It is also important not to over-mix or over-knead
gluten-free doughs. NOTE: For list of Gluten-Free ingredients, refer to pages
15–16.
7. Artisan Dough –
This program allows the preparation of artisan doughs.
There are several long, slow, cool rises that will enhance the development
of texture, taste and crust in the final shaped and baked bread. This is a
dough ONLY program. The dough can be baked using the Bake program,
or shaped and baked in a conventional oven.
8. Dough –
There are two ways to prepare dough in the bread maker if
you wish to bake it in a conventional oven. One way is by using our Dough
program. It mixes ingredients, kneads and takes the dough through the
two rises. It is appropriate for almost any dough recipe (except gluten free)
and ideal for pizza dough. It is intended that the dough will be removed
and shaped by hand and allowed to rise 1 or 2 more times out of the bread
maker. Alternatively, you can choose a specific bread program from the
menu options, and remove the dough when the Remove Paddle signal
tones. This will take you through two rise cycles. This method is suitable for
any alternative loaf shape, dinner rolls, braided challah bread, and so on.
Last rise will take place outside the bread maker.
9. Jam –
The bread maker is a great cooking environment for homemade
jams and compotes. The paddle automatically keeps the ingredients
stirring through the process. The heating element is placed in a way that
the contents will not get burned. The program starts in a heating phase so
it will appear to be inactive. It will start mixing about 10 minutes into the
program. We provide recipes to get you started. They make a wonderful
complement to freshly baked bread!
10. Packaged Mix –
This program is meant for prepackaged yeast bread mixes
intended for the bread machines. Mixes for 1½ and 2 lbs.
(680 and 907 g) work best.
11. Cake –
Cake-like in texture, and often referred to as "quick breads," recipes
for this program are usually baked in a shaped pan such as a loaf pan or
muffin tin. They are a batter-type bread rather than a yeast dough, and get
their leavening from baking powder, baking soda and eggs.
Add-ins must be added at the very beginning of the cycle with other basic
ingredients. If the finished bread is a little moist on top when
baking is complete (moisture will depend on ingredients of the cake), leave
it in the bread maker on Keep Warm for 10 to 15 minutes, and
it will continue baking – this is called “after cooking.”
12. Bake –
This program activates the bread maker for Bake function only.
You can use this setting if you want the finished loaf to have a darker crust
colour (this will only require a few extra minutes, so keep
your eye on the loaf). Only the Bake function should be used to bake store-
purchased doughs.
