Bread Mix Instructions
1 . Remove the bread pan from the Bread Maker. Add 1 cup of warm water to pan. Open bread mix packet and empty contents into pan. Dig a small hole in the breadmix and add the yeast packet.
2 . Insert the pan firmly into the bottom of the machine, applying pressure to each corner of the pan to make sure it is snapped tightly into the retaining brackets. If you are unsure, apply pressure once more to each corner of the pan.
3 . Now press “Start.” Your bread will be done in the amount of time indicated on the timer. When it is done, you’ll hear five beeps. That’s the cue to take the pan out of the machine. A word of caution, the pan will be hot, so use pot holders. It’s best to let your bread cool for 15 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
(There directions only apply if your Bread Maker has bread mix included. Should you purchase bread mix from a grocery store or specialty store, be
sure to follow the instructions on the box for best results.) |

yeast Basic Ingredients
Yeast is actually a microscopic plant. Simply stated, without yeast, your bread will not rise. When moistened by a liquid, fed by sugar, and carefully warmed, yeast produces gases which power the dough to rise. If the temperature is too cold, the yeast will not be activated; if it’s
too warm, it will die. The Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker takes care of this worry for you by maintaining just the right temperature in the baking chamber at all times, YOU can
use either “active dry yeast”, ” quick acting”, “rapid rise yeast” or one of the new “Bread machine yeasts” in your Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker.
Sugars
Sugars sweeten the bread, brown the crust, and lend tenderness to the texture. These jobs can be performed by white or brown sugar, molasses, maple or corn syrups. honey, fruits or other sweeteners.
In order for the bread to rise, the flour has to have a high protein content. You should always use a “bread flour” (for white bread recipes) in your bread maker to get the best results. Do not use all-purpose, cake flour or self-rising flour.
Unlike white bread flour, whole wheat flour contains bran and wheat germ which inhibit rising. Wheat breads therefore tend to be heavier in texture and smaller in size. A lighter larger loaf can be achieved by combining whole wheat flour with white bread flour for wheat bread recipes.
Liquids
When liquids are mixed with the proteins in flour, gluten is formed. Gluten is necessary for rising. Many recipes use dry milk, but other liquids, such as fruit juice, beer, and water work too. It’s a delicate balance: A recipe with too much liquid may cause the bread to fall during baking while a recipe with too little liquid will not rise.
Salt
Salt inhibits rising, so be very careful measuring. Any ordinary table salt will do.
Fats
Many breads use fats to enhance the flavor and retain moisture. Typically, we use margarine in these recipes, but butter may also be used.

Important Measuring Tips
Because each ingredient plays such a specific role, it is especially important to measure the ingredients exactly to get the best results.
For dry ingredients, use a standard measuring spoon or measuring cup -- not a tableware spoon or coffee cup -- and level off. For flour, simply spoo the flour into a measuring cup and level off with a flat kitchen utensil.
For liquids, fill a standard measuring spoon or measuring cup to the level indicated. Check your cup measurement by placing the measuring cup on a flat surface.
For solid fats, fill a standard measuring spoon or measuring cup to the level indicated and level off with a kitchen utensil.
Last Things Last!
You’ll see this tip in several places in this book, but it bears repeating: Always put th liquids in first, the dry ingredients in next, and the yeast last. Before adding the yeas dig a shallow hole in the dry ingredients and place the yeast in the hole so that there absolutely no contact between the liquids and the yeast. You don’t want the yeast to activated too soon in the process. This is especially important when you’re using the Dela bake option.
Adding Fruits and Nuts
Fruits and nuts are added later, after the machine has completed the first knead. The machine will beep three times to let you know it is time to add fruit or nuts. If they are
added before |
the |
fruit nut beep, the fruit will be pureed due to excessive kneading. |
||
If fresh |
fruits |
or |
perishable ingredients are |
called for in a recipe, (i.e., eggs, |
cheese, |
milk) |
do |
not use the Delay bake |
option. |

Mixing and Kneading
In standard bread baking, the baker mixes the ingredients
,first by stirring, then by kneading the dough by hand. The Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker mixes and kneads the
dough automatically for you.
Rising
When making bread by hand, the dough is placed in a warm place to rise after mixing so that the yeast can ferment and produce gas. After mixing the dough, the Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker maintains the optimum temperature for rising during this part of the process.
If you are using the Dough Only cycle, the Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker will stop at the end of the first rising. You will hear a series of 5 beeps to let you know it’s done. The dough can now be removed and shaped - for bagels, pizza or other creations - and placed in your own oven for baking.
Punch Down
Once the dough has risen, the baker will typically “punch down” the dough. This process helps to break apart large, unwanted pockets of air and gas that have developed through rising, giving the bread a more even and appetizing texture. This Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker handles this process automatically for you by turning on the kneading blade for just the right amount of time.
Second Rise
After it is punched down, the bread bounces back -- it rises a second time. Some breads require shorter or longer rising times. For example, wheat breads require a longer rising time because the flour contains bran and wheat germ which inhibit rising. The Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker regulates the temperature and timing of this second rise automatically for you based on your selection.
Bake
The Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker automatically regulates baking time and temperature for perfect results every time!
In standard baking, the baker removes the bread from the pan immediately to keep the crust from turning soggy. We recommend that you do the same with the Oster Deluxe Bread and Dough Maker, too.
