POWER OUTAGE

7-Minute Power Failure Back-Up

Your Breadman feature. If the electricity goes out, the memory will store your cycle selection for up to 7 minutes. If the power comes back on within this time, bread making will resume where it left o.

If the bread maker loses power for more than 7 minutes and you are using any dairy products, perishables or meat in your bread, you should discard the contents of the recipe and start again with new fresh ingredients due to health and sanitary considerations. For nonperishable recipes you may try starting the bread maker at the beginning of the cycle again. However, this may not always produce an acceptable loaf of bread.

If you are not sure when the outage occurred, remove the dough and discard.

KNEADING AND BAKING Cycles

Note: If at any time during bread making process you need to turn bread maker o, press and hold the START/STOP button for several seconds, then unplug the unit.

Note: If bread is not removed immediately after baking and START/ STOP button is not pressed, a controlled 60-minute Keep Warm

mode will begin (except during Quick Bread, Dough and Jam). For best results, remove bread immediately after baking process is complete.

WHITE

Used for breads that primarily include white bread our, although some recipes may include small amounts of whole wheat our.

WHOLE WHEAT

Used for recipes with signicant amounts of whole wheat or rye our, oats or bran. Whole wheat cycle begins with rest period during which ours or grains absorb liquid ingredients. Soaking causes our or grain to soften and helps ingredients to combine. Generally, whole wheat and multi-grain breads are shorter and denser than white, French or sweet.

FRENCH

Traditionally, French bread has a slightly crispier crust and lighter texture than white bread. Recipes usually do not include butter, margarine or milk.

SWEET

Used for recipes that contain eggs, fruit juice, additional sugar or added sweet ingredients such as coconut akes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate. Baking temperature is reduced to prevent burning.

GLUTEN-FREE

Used for gluten-free recipes.

LOW CARB

Used for recipes that are lower in carbohydrates.

JAM

Use to prepare preserves, marmalade, chutneys and ketchup. Add fruit, sugar and lemon juice for homemade preserves – a great topping for homemade bread, waes and ice cream.

QUICK BREAD

Used for recipes that contain baking powder or baking soda, rather than yeast, to make bread rise. Cake recipes made from scratch must be specially designed for this cycle.

DOUGH

Use to prepare dough for making bread, rolls or pizza which are shaped and allowed to rise before baking in a conventional oven. This program blends and kneads the dough and takes it through the rst rise.

RAPID

Used for White, Whole Wheat and Sweet cycles to decrease time to approximately 1 hour. Choose recipe, then simply add ½ tsp. to amount of yeast listed for a 2-lb. loaf. Bread may be shorter and denser than bread made using the longer program.

BAKE ONLY

Used if crust is too light or you wish to bake pre-made dough – also especially useful if your bread is not quite done. Check every few minutes. Bakes for up to 1 hour, 30 minutes.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS

FLOUR & OTHER GRAINS

ALLPURPOSE FLOUR All-purpose our is a blend of rened hard and soft wheat ours ideally suited for making quick

breads and cakes.

BRAN Bran (unprocessed) is coarse outer portion of wheat or rye grains that is separated from our by sift-

ing or bolting. It is often added to bread in small quantities for nutritional enrichment, heartiness and avor. It is also used to enhance bread texture.

BREAD FLOUR Bread our typically has higher gluten concentration than all-purpose our. Using bread our will

produce loaves with better volume and structure.

CORNMEAL AND OATMEAL Cornmeal and oatmeal come from coarsely ground white or yellow corn and from rolled or steel-cut

oats. They are used primarily to enhance avor and texture of bread.

CRACKED WHEAT Cracked wheat has very coarse texture. It comes from wheat kernels cut into angular

fragments. It gives whole grain breads a nutty avor and crunchy texture.

RYE FLOUR Rye our must always be mixed with high proportion of bread our, as it does not contain enough

gluten to develop structure for high, even-grained loaf.

SELFRISING FLOUR Self-Rising Flour is NOT RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker. Self-rising our

contains leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and quick bread making.

7 GRAIN CEREAL BLEND 7 grain cereal blend is a blend of cracked wheat, oats, bran, rye, cornmeal, ax seeds and hulled millet.

It is used primarily to enhance avor and texture of bread.

VITAL WHEAT GLUTEN Vital Wheat Gluten is manufactured from wheat our that has been treated to remove nearly all of the

starch to leave a very high protein content. (Gluten is the protein in wheat that Makes dough elastic.) Vital Wheat Gluten is available at most health food stores. It can be used in small portions to increase volume and lighten texture.

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR Whole wheat our is milled from the entire wheat kernel, which contains the bran and germ. This

high ber our is richer in nutrients than all-purpose or bread our. Breads made with this our are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves. Many recipes mix whole wheat our with bread our or vital wheat gluten to produce higher, lighter-textured bread.

TIPS ON FLOUR STORAGE

Keep our in a secure, airtight container. Store rye and whole wheat ours in a refrigerator, freeze or a cool area to prevent them from becoming rancid. Allow our to come to room temperature before using.

Note: Flours, while visibly similar, can be very dierent in how they are ground, milled, stored, etc. You may have to experiment with dierent brands of our to help you make the perfect loaf. See RECIPE TIPS to assist with these experiments.

YEAST

Active yeast, through a fermentation process, produces carbon dioxide gas necessary to make bread rise. Yeast feeds on carbohydrates in sugar and our to produce this gas. Three dierent types of yeast are available: fresh (cake), active dry and quick-acting. Quick, rapid rise and bread machine yeasts are quick-acting. Fresh (cake) yeast is NOT RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker.

TIPS ON YEAST

Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its expiration date. Ideally, yeast should be used several months before the expiration date. Once a package or jar of yeast is opened, it is important that the remaining contents be immediately resealed and refrigerated or frozen for future use. Often dough that fails to rise is due to stale yeast.

Note: Basic bread and dough recipes in this booklet were developed using active dry yeast. You may use chart below to substitute any quick-acting yeast (quick rise, fast rise or bread maker yeast) for active dry yeast.

CONVERSION CHART FOR BREAD MACHINE YEAST

¾ tsp. bread machine yeast = ½ tsp. quick-acting yeast 1 tsp. bread machine yeast = ¾ tsp. quick-acting yeast 1½ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1 tsp. quick-acting yeast 2¼ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1½ tsp. quick-acting yeast 1 Tbsp. bread machine yeast = 2 tsp. quick-acting yeast

RAPID CYCLES

Rapid cycle settings for White, Whole Wheat and Sweet decrease time for making your favorite bread in approximately 1 hour. Choose recipe, then add an additional ½ tsp. of bread machine yeast to the recipe. The bread may be shorter and denser.

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENT NOTES Important: Exact measurements for ingredients are the most important part of baking. It is the key to getting great texture and consistency in your bread. Make sure to measure all ingredients exactly.

BAKING POWDER Double-acting baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of leavening

agent does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added and again during baking process.

BAKING SODA Baking soda is another leavening agent, not to be confused or substituted for baking powder.

It also does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works during baking process.

EGGS Eggs add richness and velvety texture to bread dough and cakes. When recipe calls for egg(s),

large egg(s) at room temperature should be used.

FATS Butter, margarine and oil shorten or tenderize the texture of yeast breads. French bread gets unique crust and

texture from the lack of added fat. However, breads that call for fat stay fresh longer. If butter is used directly from refrigerator, it should be cut into small pieces for easier blending during kneading process.

LIQUIDS All liquids should be warm 80ºF/27ºC to 90°F/32°C for all recipes. Liquids, such as milk, water or a combination

of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve avor, provide velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Vegetable or fruit juices and potato water may be used for avor variety.

SALT Salt is necessary to balance avor in breads and cakes; it also limits growth of yeast. Changing the amount of

salt in a given recipe may result in shorter, gummier bread. When rst making a type of bread, do not increase or decrease amount of salt shown in the recipe.

SUGAR Sugar is important for color and avor of breads. It also serves as food for yeast since it the supports fermenta-

tion process. Recipes in this book that call for sugar require granulated sugar.

Important: Do not substitute powdered sugar. Articial sweeteners cannot be used as substitute, as yeast will not react properly with them.

CLIMATE CHANGES & BAKING

• In high-altitude areas (over 3,000 feet) dough tends to rise faster,

as there is less air pressure. Therefore, less yeast is necessary.

• In dry climates, our is drier and requires slightly more liquid.

• In humid climates, our is wetter and will absorb less liquid, so

less liquid is required.

Important: Your bread maker will bake up at 2½-lb. loaf. Do not put larger quantities of ingredients into bread pan. Bread will not mix and bake correctly and bread maker may be damaged. (See MAXIMUM INGREDIENT AMOUNTS.)

• Before rst use, operate on Rapid White cycle without adding ingredients to burn o manufacturing oils. (Follow instructions in USING YOUR BREAD MAKER.)

Note: During rst use, bread maker may smoke and/or

emit an odor from mineral oils used in manufacturing. This is normal.

BREAD PAN TIPS

Inserting bread pan Note: Remember to insert kneading paddles rst, then add all

ingredients in the order listed BEFORE inserting the bread pan into baking chamber.

Important: Collapsible kneading paddles may fall when ingredients are added. This is normal. They will stand up when kneading begins.

• When inserting bread pan into bread maker, make sure to set rmly in place.

Removing bread pan

• To remove bread pan from baking chamber, hold handle with an oven mitt and lift straight up.

Important: When you remove bread pan after baking, be sure to wear oven mitts to prevent burning.

• After removing loaf (by turning bread pan upside down and shaking gently), check to see that kneading paddle is removed from loaf. If it is stuck in bread, allow bread to cool; then use the paddle removal key to remove it, taking care not to scratch the kneading paddles. Allow bread to cool before removing the kneading paddles.

CHECKING DOUGH CONSISTENCY

Although your bread maker will mix, knead and bake bread automatically, when baking bread from scratch, it is recommended that you learn to recognize condition of your dough. The ratio of our to liquid is the most critical factor in any bread recipe, yet the most easily remedied. After 5 to 8 minutes in Knead 2, open bread maker to check consistency of dough. Dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky like scotch tape). If it is too dry, add 1 tsp. of liquid at a time. If it is too wet, add 1 Tbsp. of our at a time.

Using your bread maker

Note: Depending on the cycle or recipe used, some steps may

not apply or there may be additional steps. Refer to the respective recipes instructions in the recipes portion of this book, as well as the specic cycle instructions located at the end of these usage instructions.

Note: If bread is not removed immediately after baking and START/

STOP is not pressed, the Keep Warm mode will begin. Bread

maker will automatically turn o after 60 minutes. For best results, remove bread immediately after baking.

Note: Keep Warm does not apply to the following cycles:

❏ Jam ❏ Dough ❏ Bake Only

13. Turn bread pan upside down and shake to release bread (H). Place bread upright on wire rack to cool at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Note: The collapsible kneading paddles

are designed to stay in the bread pan instead of sticking in your bread. Check to see if the paddles stayed in the pan. If not, follow the caution statements below when removing.

Caution: Be sure to remove kneading paddle from the bread before serving.

Caution: Bread pan, kneading paddle and bread will be very hot. Allow bread to cool before removing the paddle and always use the paddle removal key.

14. Unplug unit and allow to cool completely before cleaning. (See CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS.)

Important: Make sure to clean the inside of the baking chamber thoroughly after each use.

15. Once bread has cooled (approximately 2 hours) store in an airtight container.

BAKING ONE POUND LOAVES

Important: You can bake either one or two breads at a time, as desired. The recipe book contains recipes for White, Whole Wheat , French, Sweet, Low Carb and Gluten Free 1-lb. loaves (see 1-lb. loaves recipe section at the back of the recipe book).

1. Open lid and remove traditional bread pan (if stored in appliance.)

Caution: Do not turn or shake bread pan while taking it out. If the bread pan is bent, temperature sensor may not work properly.

2. Insert one of the two non-collapsible kneading paddles (do not use collapsible paddles) into each of the 1-lb. bread pans. Position kneading paddle on the drive shaft. Match at side of drive shaft to at part of hole in kneading paddle. Make sure paddle is secure.

Important: Do not use the automatic fruit and nut dispenser with the 1-lb. bread pans.

9. Follow directions from step 12 to 15 in USING YOUR BREAD MAKER to nish baking.

SLICING AND STORING BREAD

For best results, place bread on wire rack and allow to cool at least 20 minutes before slicing. Use electric knife or serrated knife for even slices.

Store unused bread, tightly sealed (sealable plastic bags or plastic containers work well) at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, (up to 1 month) place bread in sealed container in freezer. Since homemade bread has no preservatives, it tends to dry out and become stale faster. Leftover or slightly hardened bread may be cut into ½-inch or 1-inch cubes and used in recipes to make croutons, bread pudding or stung.

USING 15-HOUR DELAY BAKE TIMER

Important: Delay baking does not activate JAM cycle. Do not use delay bake timer if your recipe includes perishables, such as, eggs, fresh milk, yogurt or other dairy products and meats, etc.

To preset your bread maker, follow these steps:

1. Add ingredients in the order listed as usual, taking care not to let yeast and liquid ingredients contact one another.

Note: If your recipe contains salt, add it with the liquid ingredients,

taking care to keep it away from the yeast.

2. Close bread maker lid and plug it in.

3. Press MENU to choose cycle. Time needed for selected cycle appears in display window.

4. Press ▲ to add time in 10-minute intervals. (Use ▼ to subtract time.) Amount of time set is shown in display window.

• To fast-forward time, continually press ▲ .

• To fast-reverse, continually press ▼ .

• For example, if it is 8:00 AM and you want bread ready at 1:00

PM, press ▲until the display reads 5:00 – meaning it will nish baking in 5 hours. This is the hour dierence between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM.

Note: Actual baking times will not change.

5. Press LOAF to choose loaf size, press CRUST to choose crust color, then press START to begin timer. The colon (:) in time display begins to ash, letting you know timer is started. When your bread is nished baking, bread maker will beep and “0:00” will appear in display window. Press START/STOP and open lid.

6. If you make an error after you’ve activated program and want to start over, press and hold START/STOP for approximately 5 seconds. Timer will clear and you can begin again.

BAKE ONLY

The Bake Only cycle oers the exibility to vary time. You can bake pre-made dough or dough purchased at the store using this cycle. You may also use this cycle if crust color is too light or if your sweet bread is not quite done. Check every few minutes.

1. Press the MENU button and move to cycle 13.

2. Adjust the amount of time you need up to 90 minutes.

3. Press START to begin baking.

SPECIAL GLAZES FOR YEAST BREADS

Select one of the following special glazes to enhance your bread.

• Melted Butter Crust: Brush melted butter over just-baked bread for a softer, more tender crust.

• Milk Glaze: For a softer, shiny crust, brush just-baked bread with milk or cream.

• Sweet Icing Glaze: Mix 1 cup sifted confectioner’s sugar with 1 to

2 tablespoons of milk, water or fruit juice until smooth. Drizzle glaze over raisin or sweet bread when they are almost cool.

Note: If desired, generously sprinkle with your choice of nuts or

seeds after glazing.

DOUGH CYCLE

Tips for Best Results

• If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of our, away from liquids.

Important: Never allow dough to remain in bread maker after cycle is complete; it may over rise and damage machine.

• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan will vary due to recipe, temperature and humidity level of your kitchen. Optimum temperature for rising is 80°– 85°F. Rising is the most essential feature in bread making.

• Bread maker allows dough to have rst rise or fermentation before dough is removed. Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming pliable and elastic with a soft, smooth quality) develops avor and leavens product.

• Sometimes a double rising is benecial especially for whole grain or 100% whole wheat bread. Let dough rise once in bread maker. Remove from bread maker, punch down, let rise again, punch down and let rest 10 minutes. Resting allows gluten to relax and Makes handling easier. Shape as desired and allow to rise until doubled in volume. If only 1 rise is desired, remove from bread maker, let rest, shape and rise as above.

• Baker’s Tip: Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation remains after tip of a nger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough. If indentation springs back, cover and let rise a few more minutes and check again.

SPECIAL TIPS FOR MAKING DOUGH

Important: For use only with the Dough Cycle

• Always allow optimum rising of shaped dough.

• Use pastry brush to apply glaze.

• Bake as directed in recipe.

LIGHTLY FLOURED

Sprinkle enough our onto work area so dough can be handled without sticking.

SHAPED ROLLS

Important: Once rolls are shaped, cover and let rise until doubled before baking.

CLOVERLEAF ROLLS

Shape into ½-inch balls. Place 3 balls in each greased mun tin.

APPLY JUST BEFORE BAKING

EGG YOLK GLAZE

For shiny golden crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg or egg yolk with 1 Tbsp. water or milk.

EGG WHITE GLAZE

For shiny, chewy crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg white with 1 Tbsp. water.

If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts or fruit and/or seeds after glazing.

CRISSCROSS ROLLS

Shape into balls, setting 2 aside. Combine balls and roll into a inch thick square. Cut strips

-inch wide and 2-inches long. Brush

top of roll with beaten egg. Place 1 strip across top of each ball. Repeat process, placing second strip in opposite direction across top of each ball.

TRADITIONAL ROLLS

Shape into balls. For “pull apart” rolls, place dough balls with sides touching in 8 or 9-inch round or square greased baking pan. For “individual” rolls place dough balls 2 inches apart.

CRESCENT ROLLS

On lightly oured board, roll dough to 12-inch circle. Spread with softened butter. Cut into 16 wedges beginning at wider end. Place rolls 2-inches apart on greased baking sheet with points underneath; curve rolls slightly. If desired, brush with melted butter just before baking.

ROSETTES

On lightly oured board, roll about 1½ oz. piece of dough into 14-inch rope. Tie in a loose knot, leaving 2 long ends. Tuck one end under knot and second end into the top center of the loose knot. Place 2-inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet.

JAM CYCLE

Method:

1. Following steps in USING YOUR BREAD MAKER; select JAM cycle.

2. Once JAM cycle is complete, remove bread pan from bread maker and pour hot mixture into heat-safe jars, leaving ½” of space at the top.

3. Allow to partially cool. Cover tightly to store. Mixture will thicken upon cooling.

Tips for Best Results

• Do not reduce sugar or use sugar substitutes. Exact amounts of sugar, fruit, and other ingredients are necessary for good set.

• Use only ripe fruit (not overripe or under-ripe) for best avor.

• Do not puree fruit. Jam should have bits of fruit in it.

• Recipes should not exceed 3 cups fruit.

• Remove stems, seeds or pits from fruit.

• You may use strawberries, blackberries, raspberries or other thin skinned berries. Fruit such as peaches, pears and apricots may be used, but should be peeled and have seeds removed.
