WELCOME TO THE TOASTMASTER
BREAD BOX

Thank you for purchasing your newTOASTMASTER BREAD AND BUTTER MAKER.Your new
breadmaker is an exciting appliance because it mixes, kneads and bakes the bread by itself.All
you need to do is measure and add the ingredients in the correct order.You can also use the
butter churn feature to churn fresh butter from cream in minutes.

Please try several loaves of bread from the accompanying Recipe Book to familiarize yourself
with the breadmaker, specific breadmaker recipes, and the shape and quality of loaves your
breadmaker will make. We recommend White Bread, 100% Whole Wheat Bread, Sticky
Breakfast Rolls and Honey Butter, to give you some experience with the different settings.

A few things you should know:

• The method of using yeast and the order of adding ingredients to the breadmaker and
d i f fe r e n t from yeast bread recipes made from scratch.

• The shape of the loaves is different from traditional bread loves. See directions for Cutting
and Storing Bread Loaves on page 14.

• Accurate measuring of ingredients is very important for best results.

• After you try several loaves of bread from the recipes provided, only then should you begin
to make any adjustments in the recipe ingredients or try to adapt a favorite family recipe.The
more experience you have with the exact ingredient proportions, the more successful you
will be when you experiment yourself.

Please take time to read the use and care information that follows as well as the information in
the Recipe Book that accompanies your breadmaker.By following this information, we feel that
you will be thoroughly satisfied, and will enjoy high-quality, delicious fresh bread for years to

❏ KNEAD

During the first knead, the dough ingredients are mixed together for a few minutes
with the kneading blade pulsing on/off.D u ring all knead stages, the dough is m a n i p­u l a t e d c o n t i nu o u s l y. Kneading develops the gluten (elastic substance deve l o p e d
from protein when wheat flour is combined with liquid) that gives yeast bread its char­acteristic cellular structure.

❏ PRE-HEAT

For WHOLE WHEAT settings, preheat period occurs at the beginning of the setting to
allow time for the liquid to moisten the whole wheat flour and for the breadmaker’s
inner case to warm.

❏ RISE

The dough is left alone to rise.

❏ PUNCH

Releases gas (carbon dioxide) that has built up in the dough.

❏ SHAPE

The dough is shaped into a smooth, round ball.

❏ FINAL RISE

The dough is left to rise and the bread is formed for baking.

❏ BAKE

The buzzer sounds three times when baking is completed.

❏ KEEP WARM

The inner case is kept warm automatically to prevent the bread from getting soggy.

❏ BUTTER CHURN

The kneading blade churns the heavy whipping cream into bu t t e r. The heating
e l e m e n t does not warm the inner case.

HOW TO USE YOUR BREADMAKER

The breadmaker can be programmed to perform various functions.The BAKE settings make
bread from start to finish.The DOUGH setting makes dough for a variety of recipes, but you
must shape it yourself, then bake it in a regular oven.For the Delayed Finish feature, the bread­maker can be programmed to make bread or dough while you are at work or asleep. For the
BUTTER CHURN setting, pour in heavy whipping cream and 30 minutes later you have fresh
butter.

Before Baking (Use for All Settings)

All of the settings are programmed by first following steps 1 through 9 (pages 10 through 12).
Then, depending on the setting desired, refer to BAKE SETTINGS- Immediate Start (page 13)
DOUGH SETTING- Immediate Start (page 15), or BAKE and DOUGH SETTINGS-Delayed
Finish (pages 15 and 16) to complete the process.

1. Choose a recipe from the Toastmaster Recipe Book. Read it thoroughly before you
begin to bake.

2. Before adding ingredients, remove the bread pan by pulling the handle straight up.
(Adding ingredients outside the breadmaker eliminates the possibility of accidentally
spilling ingredients directly into the inner case.).
Attach the kneading blade onto the mounting shaft by lining up the flat sides then
pushing the kneading blade down onto the mounting shaft.

Be sure all parts are clean and free of crumbs or other fo o d .

•

If the kneading blade is not placed correctly, kneading may be affe c t e d .

•

3 . Select fresh, high-quality ingredients, and use them in proper pro p o rt i o n . E v e n

small adjustments in the type or amount of ingredients can affect the quality of the
b r e a d .

For BAKE settings, the maximum amount of flour is 42⁄3 c u p s.

•

For DOUGH setting, the maximum amount of flour is 42⁄3 c u p s.

•

For packaged bread machine bread mixe s, be sure that the amount of mix is not more

•

than 4 cups. If the amount of mix is more, measure out 4 cups and adjust the yeast and
water accordingly.

10

4. Measure accurately for successful breadmaker bread loaves. Mismeasuring, even
slightly,can make a big difference in your results. Measure each ingredient precisely
before placing it into the bread pan.

To measure liquids, use a see-through glass or

•

plastic liquid measuring cup.
Read the measurement at eye level.

To measure flour, spoon into a standard dry

•

ingredient measuring cup and level with a
straight-edged knife or metal spatula.

Use standard measuring spoons and level with

•

a straight-edged knife or metal spatula.

5. Measure and add ingredients in the order given in the recipe. Once all ingredients
h ave been add e d , r e ch e ck the recipe to be sure each one was used, and in the
correct quantity and order.

The correct order of adding ingredients is:

1. Water and other liquids (including eggs)

2. Oil, sugar, salt, etc.

3. Flour and dried fruits

4. Active dry yeast

IMPORTANT: When using the Delayed Finish feature, please pay special attention to the order

of the ingredients. When adding the dry yeast, make a hollow depression in the
mound of flour and pour the dry yeast into it.Do not let the yeast touch the water
or the dough may not rise properly.

Measuring Cup

6 . Place the bread pan into the inner case.

Wipe off any moisture from the outer side of the bread pan before placing it into

•

the inner case.

A. BAKE Settings-Immediate Start

This section explains how to set the breadmaker using one of the various BAKE settings.Make
sure that the setting you select is the correct setting for the recipe you are making.Follow steps
1 through 9 on page 10 through 12.

10. Press the START pad.

The display window will show the time remaining until the completion of the selected

•

setting.The time will “count down” in one-minute increments.

For Example: When you have selected, the Basic (Medium) setting, “2:50” appears in the

display window.

BASIC and SWEET Settings:

These settings have an additional ingredient buzzer that sounds
eight times to allow you to add ingredients such as nuts, raisins,
etc. during the last 6 minutes of the kneading.When using delayed
start these ingredients are added at the same time as the flour and water, etc.

WHOLE WHEAT Settings:

For the first 30 minutes of settings number 4, 5 and 6, the breadmaker is preheating and
allowing the liquid to moisten the flour. The kneading blade does not mix or knead during
this time.The whole wheat rapid preheats for 15 minutes.

Note: for all bake settings

Steam will rise from the vent on the back of the lid during operation.

•

When baking is finished the buzzer will sound three times and the display will read “0:00”.

•

The colons “0:00” will be flashing, indicating the “Keep Warm” feature is on.

•

When a BAKE setting is complete, the machine automatically goes into a “KEEP W ARM”

•

stage.
You may remove the bread anytime during this period, or you may wait until the keep

•

warm period is over.

Note: Unless turned OFF, the “KEEP WA R M ” feature will remain on 60 minutes after the

b a k i n g is complete.To turn off the “KEEP WARM” feature, press STOP pad
for more than two seconds. The colons “0:00” will stop flashing,
but remain in display window.

11. Remove the bread pan

Open the lid.

•

Using pot holders or oven mitts, remove the bread pan

•

by pulling straight up on the handle.

Caution:Be sure to use pot holders or oven mitts to

remove the bread pan as it will be extremely hot!

13

12. Remove the bread.

Be sure to use pot holders when removing the bread from the bread

•

pan.
Turn the bread pan upside down and shake it several times to

•

remove the bread.
Place the bread on a wire rack and allow it to cool.

•

The kneading blade may remain in the bottom of the loaf.

•

If this occurs, allow the load to cool, then remove the kneading blade using the bowl end
of a plastic spoon or other plastic or wooden utensil so the blade is not scratched. If
removing the blade when the bread is hot, use oven mitts or wrap the loaf in a towel.
The kneading blade may remain in the bottom of the pan.It is not necessary to remove

•

the kneading blade for cleaning.But if you wish to, it must be removed after each use.
To remove, fill the pan with hot soapy water and allow it to soak for 20 minutes.Wash it
with a soft brush or cloth and allow to dry thoroughly.

13. Unplug the breadmaker

When removing the plug, always grasp the plug and not the cord.

Cutting and Storing Bread Loaves

CUTTING

Because loaves baked in a breadmaker are shaped differently from traditional bread loaves,
below are several ways to cut them:

Use an electric knife for best results when cutting hot bread loave s. O t h e r w i s e, a sharp

•

s e r ra t e d or sawtooth bread knife works well.
For square slices-place the loaf on its side and slice across the loaf .We find this is the eas-

•

iest way to cut loaves.
For rectangular slices-place the loaf upright and cut from the top down.Slices may be cut

•

in half, lengthwise or crosswise.
For wedges-place the loaf upright and cut through the center from the top down. Place

•

each half cut side down and cut lengthwise into four, six or eight wedges.

STORING

If you have leftover bread, store it as follows:

Store bread tightly covered at room temperature for up to three day s.If weather is hot and

•

humid, store in the freeze r.
Store bread tightly covered in the freezer for up to one month. Slicing the loaves befo r e

•

freezing makes it easy to use one slice at a time.
Do not store bread in the refri g e rator because it tends to dry out and become stale more

•

q u i ckly than commercially made bread.
L e f t over bread can be cut into 1⁄2 or 1-inch cubes for use in your favo rite bread pudding,

•

crouton and stuffing recipes. Keep a tightly closed container in the freezer to add to as
n e e d e d .

14

B. DOUGH Setting-Immediate Start

To set the DOUGH setting: Follow steps 1 through 9 on pages 10 through 12.

10. Press the START pad.

The SELECT pad has been pressed, and the machine

•

changed to the “9”- Dough mode. Press the START pad.
The remaining time until the dough is finished will be

•

displayed.
When the rising is complete, the buzzer will sound

•

three times to let you know the dough is ready.
“0:00”will then be displayed.

•

11. Remove the dough.

When the buzzer sounds, press the STOP pad.

•

Open the lid, remove the bread pan by lifting it

•

straight up and remove the dough.

12. Turn the machine off and unplug the cord.

Unplug the unit by grasping the plug and not by

•

pulling on the cord.

C . BAKE and DOUGH Settings-Delayed Finish

This section explains how to set the Delayed Finish feature so that you can have a loaf

•

of bread or dough whenever you want.
When using the timer, always set it before pressing the START pad.

•

The Delayed Finish feature can be used to delay the finish of settings up to 12 hours.

•

15

For example:

Let’s say that it is 9:00 pm and you would like a loaf of bread to be finished by 6:30 am
the next morning.First, select the Basic (light) Setting by pressing the SELECT pad.The
number “1” will appear in the display window. There is a 9 hour, 30 minute difference
between 9:00 pm and 6:30 am. So, enter “9:30” (for 9 hours, 30 minutes) by pressing
either “¶” or “Ä” pads until “9:30” appears in display window.

To program the machine for Delayed Finish:

Follow steps 1 through 9 on pages 10-12 for selecting and setting BAKE or DOUGH.

To enter 9:30 in the display window, press either the ¶ or Ä
pads of the timer set pad.

If you press the ¶ pad, 2:40 will appear in the display

•

window.
If you press the Ä pad, 2:40 of the Basic (light) setting

•

will appear in the display window.Once more press the

Ä pad, 12:00 will appear in the display window.

Delayed Finish can be set in 10-minute increments.

•

If you press and “hold” one of the timer set pads, the time will
move quickly forward or backward.

If you past the time you want to set, press the other pad

•

to reverse the setting to desired time.
To check the setting you have selected, press the

•

SELECT pad.To return to the time of the Delayed Finish
feature, press the SELECT pad again.

Press the START pad to start the timer.

The colon (:) of the time readout in the display will flash

•

to indicate that the countdown has begun.
The display will show the time count-down in one-minute

•

increments until “0:00”has been reached and baking has
been completed.
If you make a mistake setting the Delayed Finish, press

•

the STOP pad.This will clear the display window and you
can begin again.

Congratulations! You have just acquired a Toastmaster Bread and Butter Maker.
Toastmaster Inc. has become a household name you can count on as has RED STAR
Yeast.The Home Economists at RED STAR®Yeast and Toastmaster have combined their
efforts to provide the exciting recipes in this cookbook. Many hours of developing and
testing these recipes were necessary to assure yo u , the home baker, a variety of
d e l i c i o u s homemade breads.The breadmaker will bake up to a 2 lb. loaf of fresh bread
containing approximately 4 cups of flour.

While some of you have been baking breads using traditional methods for years, others
may have no experience at all. Actually,neither group has an advantage over the other
since using a bread machine is a completely new concept in bread making. To achieve
optimum results, please take a few minutes and read the following information before
you even shop for the ingredients.

YEAST:THE NUMBER ONE INGREDIENT

RED STAR®Active DryYeast was used in developing all the recipes in this book.However RED
STAR®QUICK RISE™Yeast could also be used. We found that we did not have to vary the
amount used when we substituted one for the other in this Toastmaster Bread Box.

Because yeast can grind against itself and become very fine, it is packaged by weight and not
by volume. A1⁄4 oz. package of RED STAR®Yeast contains approximately 21⁄4 level teaspoons
of yeast.The activity of yeast will deteriorate when it is exposed to oxygen, moisture or warmth.
Therefore, yeast needs to be stored airtight, refrigerated or frozen.Yeast is granular and comes
to room temperature very quickly.

Yeast fe rments sugar to leaven bread. White sugar, brown sugar and honey may be
i n t e r c h a n g e d equally. Since honey is a liquid, decrease the water by the same amount as the
honey added. Artificial sweeteners may not be used as the yeast cannot react with them. But
yeast does have the ability to convert the starch in flour to sugar.French bread is an example
of yeast activity in a bread dough with little or no sugar.Although sugar is the favorite food of
yeast, too much sugar will cause the yeast to dysfunction, especially within a bread machine
program.The yeast will have a feeding frenzy and then become lethargic.The loaf of bread will
be small and dense.Dried fruits also contribute sugar to the bread dough.Resist the temptation
to add more than specified for in the recipe.

FLOUR: BREAD FLOUR IS ESSENTIAL

All types of flour are affected by a variety of factors, such as milling grades, moisture content,
length of storage and manufacturing processes. Adjustments to the recipes may need to be
made to compensate for climactic changes in each region to ensure an excellent loaf every time.

Bread flour is a definite necessity. Milled from hard winter or spring wheat, it has a higher
p r o t e i n content which makes it more dura ble than all-purpose flour.The protein, when mixed with
liquid, becomes gluten. When kneaded, gluten becomes elastic and give the bread better
s t ru c t u r e. In contrast, all-purpose flour, milled from a combination of soft and hard wheat
becomes elastic too easily for use in a bread machine and quickly loses its ability to stretch we l l .
As a result, bread made from all-purpose flour will be small and dense.Several well-known mills

17

market bread flour.The packages are labeled bread flour and are readily available at grocery
stores.

Wheat is the only grain that contains the type of protein that becomes elastic when kneaded.
Other flours, such as rye, barley, oats, soy, rice and buckwheat, add flavor and fiber to breads,
but do not add structure to the dough. T h e r e fo r e, wheat flour is essential as a base when
m a k i n g breads with other flour ingredients.

Be careful when adding wheat germ, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and liquid milk to recipes that you
do not exceed the amount listed.These products, if used in amounts which exceed the recipe
directions, may inhibit the rising of the bread.

Vital Wheat Gluten is produced by processing white flour one more step.White flour contains
both protein and starch, and mills now can remove most of the starch leaving only the protein
(gluten). This is more expensive, but is used only in small amounts as an additive to regular
flour.When gluten is added to recipes containing whole grain flours, it improves the volume and
shape of the loaf significantly. Usually 1 teaspoon per cup of flour will make a difference. If more
than a tablespoon per cup of flour is used, the bread may be tough.Many grocery stores stock
gluten in the flour section. Health food stores and nutrition centers also usually carry this item.

The addition of soy flour to a bread recipe will give a wonderful nutty flavor as well as add
p r o t e i n, iron, B vitamins, calcium, zinc and dietary fiber.Use the special soy recipe in the recipe
section or add soy flour to bread recipes such as white, egg or trail mix.Add up to 1 tablespoon
of soy flour per cup of flour to the recipe. No need to adjust other ingredients or change the
p r o gra m .The dough ball will be more tacky than usual, but will bake into a nice loaf of bread.
Fore more information on soy products, write or call Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council,
PO Box 104778, Jefferson City, Missouri 65110 [phone].

To measure flour, spoon into measuring cup and level off with a bread knife.DO NOT: tap the
cup, pack the flour into cup, or sift the flour.

Flour is best kept in an airtight container .If you need to store flour for a long period of time, keep
it in an airtight container in the freezer, not the refrigerator.Refrigerators tend to dry out flour.
Whole grain wheat flours, which have a higher oil content, will become rancid much more
q u i ck l y than white flour and should always be kept in the freezer regardless of the length of time
you intend to store the flour. Be sure, however, to allow all flour to return to room temperature
before placing in the machine.

As a good rule of thumb, check the dough ball after the first 5 minutes of the initial kneading
cycle.The ball should be round, smooth-textured, soft and slightly tacky to the touch.If it does
not fo rm a ball and is more like a batter, add 1 tablespoon of flour at a time until the appropri a t e
consistency is reached.If the mixture is too dry to form a ball or forms more than one ball, add
1 teaspoon of water and allow it to absorb into mixture. Add more water if necessary.

LEMON JUICE: DOUGH ENHANCER

Lemon juice contains acidic acid, a natural dough enhancer. The addition of lemon juice (or
vinegar - which also contains acidic acid) may help improve the overall structure of your loaf of
bread.

SALT: REGULATES YEAST ACTIVITY

Salt is necessary to control the activity of yeast, disciplining it to work slow and steady.Without
salt yeast acts very rapidly and gives out too quickly.Salt also strengthens the structure of the
dough. If too little or no salt is used, the bread will rise rapidly and then fall either before the
baking or as soon as the baking begins; the texture will be coarse and uneve n . Some salt
s u b s t i t u t e s will work effectively.

FAT:DOUGH ENHANCER AND CONDITIONER

Shortening is an American term for fat used in recipes.The recipes in this book use vegetable
oil. Solid shortening, butter or margarine may be substituted. Divide into small pieces before
placing in the machine. There will not be any noticeable flavor difference. The crust may be a
little crisper with bu t t e r. M a r g a rine tends to make the crust a little tougher. Light or whipped
m a r g a ri n e does not work well.

LIQUIDS: ACTIVATE THE YEAST AND
BIND THE DOUGH

Liquids include all the wet ingredients used in the recipe.Traditional bread bakers have been
taught correctly that warm liquid (110-115°F) will activate dry yeast. However, when yeast is
used in a bread machine, the liquid temperature most likely to provide a good environment for
the yeast is 8 0 ° F. With this tempera t u r e, the yeast activates gradually to accommodate the
p r o gra m of the machine. When higher temperature of liquids are used, the yeast not only
a c t i va t e s too quickly, but also the entire dough becomes too warm. If the temperature of the
dough rises over 100°F during the rising times, the yeast does not die but becomes ve ry
l e t h a r g i c and is not able to work effectively.

Because climates and seasons of the year make for a wide variety of humidity levels, the liquid
amount called for in a recipe may have to be adjusted. Flour will not accept the same amount
of liquid in a moist humid climate as it will in a dry climate;i.e., Florida residents always use less
than Arizona residents. Wisconsin bakers will use less liquid in their machines in the summer
than in the winter. The difference may be as much as 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 cup of liquid. When bread is
k n e a d i n g , the dough should be a soft, tacky ball.More flour, one tablespoon at a time, may be
added after 5 minutes of kneading if the dough is too wet.More liquid may also be added, one
teaspoon at a time, if the dough is too dry.If the bread falls during the baking cycle and/or quite
coarse, reduce the total liquid amount.

When the machine is set on the delayed timer, reduce the amount of liquid by 1 teaspoon to 2
tablespoons depending on the recipe and size of loaf. Be sure the liquid is very cold.

19

Eggs are also considered part of the total liquid amount. One egg should measure 1⁄4 cup.If it
does not, add additional water to equal 1⁄4 cup per egg.An egg white is equal to 1⁄8 cup.If it does
not, add additional water to equal 1⁄8 cup.Eggs need to be at room temperature before putting
them in the machine. If eggs are taken directly from the refrigerator, place them in a bowl of
warm water to take off the chill before cracking. DO NOT USE EGGS WITH THE DELAYED
SETTING.

Recipes which require nonfat dry milk can be substituted with milk. Omit the dry milk and
replace part or all of the water in the recipe with milk. Dry milk, like liquid milk will make the
crumb structure have a more velvety texture.Fresh milk is not recommended with the delayed
setting.

CINNAMON AND GARLIC: NOT TRUE
FRIENDS OF YEAST DOUGH

Although cinnamon is associated very closely to the nostalgic senses of bread, it has not been
a part of the actual dough. Previously, cinnamon and sugar were sprinkled on dough before it
was rolled up in a jelly roll fa s h i o n . Adding it to the dough in a bread machine presents a
p r o bl e m . Cinnamon acts to bread dough as meat tenderi zer acts to meat - breaking dow n
the stru c t u r e.Although it smells wonderful as it is baking, the flavor is dissipated in the baking
process. DO NOT ADD MORE than listed in the recipe.

G a rlic inhibits yeast activity. DO NOT ADD MORE than listed in the recipe. For more garl i c
f l avo r use it in a spread for the bread rather than adding it to the dough.

BREAD MIXES

Use mixes labeled for up to 2 pound loaves. For best results use the No. 1 (Basic LIght)
Program. Note: If using the delayed program, reduce the amount of water by 1 tablespoon.
Layer ingredients in bread pan in the following sequences:

Note: When baking a mix with

a high sugar content such
as cinnamon, raisin or apple
walnut, use the sweet cycle.

FREEZING OF BAKED YEAST
PRODUCTS:

When freezing a baked yeast product, it is important to have it completely cooled befo r e
w ra p p i n g to prevent moisture from making the product soggy. Do not frost before freezing.
Freeze cooled unwrapped product one hour to harden. Remove from freezer; wrap in plastic
wrap or aluminum foil.Place in plastic bag and seal.Freeze for up to six to eight weeks.To thaw,
partially open wrappings to allow moisture to escape.

FREEZING UNBAKED YEAST
PRODUCTS:

Freezing dough for later shaping and baking is done after the dough is finished kneading and
before the first rise. Divide dough into desired amounts and flatten into disks, one-inch thick.
Place on cookie sheet and put in freezer one hour to harden. Remove from freezer; wrap with
plastic wrap or aluminum foil.Place in plastic bag and seal.Dough can be kept in freezer for up
to four weeks.To thaw, place covered dough in refrigerator overnight or for several hours.Place
uncovered dough on counter for fifteen to twenty minutes to bring dough to room temperature.
Punch down dough.Dough is now ready for shaping and second rising.

Dough can also be frozen after being formed into desired shape and before rising. Place
shaped dough on cookie sheet; put in freezer one hour to harden.Remove from freezer; wrap
with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.Place in plastic bag and seal. Dough can be kept in freezer
for up to four weeks.Thaw the covered frozen dough slowly in your refrigerator overnight or for
several hours. Bring dough to room temperature partially unwrapped to allow moisture to
escape. Let dough rise to double in size before baking.Bake according to recipe instructions.

Dough may be frozen for up to six months. If an unbaked product needs to be frozen longer,
add one half again as much yeast as called for in recipe.

SUBSTITUTES

In our test kitchen, we experimented with several ingredient substitutions. We have found the
following substitutions to be acceptable, but caution that your results may vary significantly from
ours.

Milk

Coffee Creamer may be substituted for dry milk in equal proportions.
Liquid milk may be substituted for water in up to equal proportions.The dry milk may be

eliminated altogether.The loaf will be slightly smaller.The crust will be much softer.

Lemon Juice

Vinegar may be substituted for lemon juice in equal proportions.

21

Sugar

One half the amount of sugar will produce both a slightly smaller loaf and a much lighter
colored crust.

Honey may be substituted for sugar in equal proportions.You will need to reduce the liquid
by the same amount of honey you add.

Brown sugar may be substituted for white sugar in equal proportions.
Yeast NEEDS sugar and so, no artificial sweetener may be used.

Salt

Salt-free recipes were not successful.
Salt substitutes did produce an acceptable loaf.

However, the result was somewhat more coarse.

Egg

Egg beaters may be used as directed on the carton.
Two egg whites may be substituted for one egg.
REMEMBER all egg products must be room temperature.

22

BUTTER CHURN

Most people would agree: it’s hard to beat the taste of homemade bread, served fresh and
warm, straight from the breadmaker.But nowToastmaster has created a way to top even that–
with freshly churned butter.

Although based on the old-fashioned churning method–which used to require a lot of time and
elbow grease–making butter in your Bread Box Bread & Butter Maker is now as easy as 1-2-3.
Make the butter first, add the additional ingredients, cover tightly and store in the refrigerator.
This will allow the flavor of the additional ingredients to enhance the flavor of the butter while
your bread is baking.

A small amount of butter will be left in the bread pan after scooping out the one half cup of sweet
butter.If making bread right away, it is not necessary to wash interior of the bread pan prior to
making bread.The bread will absorb the butter during the knead or bake process. Remember,
do not immerse the bread pan; refer to the cleaning instructions.Hand wash the lid with mild
soap and warm water and dry thoroughly.

1. Make sure your breadmaker and pan are at room temperature.Pour in 1 cup (236 ml) cold

heavy whipping cream or heavy cream (contains at least 36% butterfat). Place lid onto
bread pan aligning the front mark on the lid with the front of the bread pan. Insert bread
pan into breadmaker and close lid.

2. Select butter program (#10). Press start. The machine will churn for 30 minutes. About

halfway through the cycle, the mixture may resemble whipped cream. It will then begin to
s e p a ra t e. Chunks of butter will be visible and the cream will continue to separate into
bu t t e rm i l k and sweet butter.

The breadmaker will beep three times when the cycle is complete.

3. Pour off buttermilk and save for other uses (see Using Buttermilk in the Toastmaster recipe

book). To rinse the butter, remove the lid and add 1 cup of cold water to the bread pan.
Replace lid, securing tightly on top of pan. Drain water into sink. Repeat rinse procedure
again.(This will rinse off any remaining buttermilk and assist in hardening the butter.)

Remove butter from pan with a rubber spatula and spread it into a small bowl or butter mold
(available at gourmet and kitchen specialty shops).Yield: approximately 1⁄2 cup butter. Cover
tightly and store in refrigerator or freezer.

See the recipe book for detailed instructions and butter recipes.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE­BREAD LOAVES

Problem Causes

Not Baked in Center • Can happen with recipes calling for moist ingredients such as applesauce

and yogurt or with heavier flours such as whole wheat or bran.

• Reduce the liquids by 1 tablespoon the next time you make the recipe.

• Humidity may be high.Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour the next time you

make the recipe.

Collapse • Ingredient amounts were out of proportion.Salt omitted.

• Too much dough was made. Exceeding the capacity of the bread pan

may cause an underbaked, gummy center and a collapsed top. When
dough rises to the top of the machine, it interferes with the circulation
needed for proper baking and cooling.

• Warm weather, high humidity or overheated liquids all speed up yeast

action, which may cause the dough to rise too fast and the bread to
c o l l a p s e before baking begins.

Over Rising • Usually indicates that ingredient quantities are out of proportion. Too

much yeast, sugar, flour, liquid or a combination may result in
exceeding the capacity of the bread pan.

Open or Coarse • Excess water or yeast was used, or yeast action was accelerated by

Texture hot, humid weather or overheated ingredients.

• Salt omitted.

Heavy, • Not enough water or too much flour was used.
Dense Texture • Not enough sugar or yeast was used.

• Recipe was imbalanced by an excess of whole grain flours, whole

grains, dried fruits or other added ingredients.

Short Loaf, • Not enough sugar was used.
Unsatisfactory • Delayed Finish feature was used and ingredients were placed in

Rising bread pan in a way that salt or water were in contact with the yeast

for a prolonged period.

• Short, heavier loaves are to be expected when whole grains or whole

grain flours are used or when all-purpose flour is substituted for bread
flour.Try using bread flour and reducing the amount of other flours and
grains.

• Incorrect amount of yeast was used, or yeast was not fresh.

No rise • Old or improperly stored yeast was used.Yeast was omitted or

mismeasured.

• Other key ingredients were omitted or mismeasured.

• Delayed finish feature was used and ingredients were placed in the pan

incorrectly.

Mushroom-Shaped • Too much yeast may have been used.Be sure yeast was measured

Top with a teaspoon, not a tablespoon.

• Added ingredients that contain sugar, such as sweetened applesauce

or raisins.

25

Problem Solution

Sunken • Loaf with top or sides that have caved in could be caused by too much

moisture. Reduce the liquids by 1 to 2 tablespoons the next time you
make the recipe.

• If recipes call for fruit or vegetables, drain well and pat them dry.

PROPER CARE AND CLEANING

Unplug the power cord and allow the breadmaker to cool completely.

*

Caution: Do not pour water into the inner case or submerge the breadmaker in water.

Use only a mild detergent to clean the breadmake r.To avoid damaging the smooth surf a c e s

*

of the breadmaker and bread pan, do not use chemical liquid cleaners (such as benzene
or thinners), nonabrasive or abrasive cleaners, or scrubbing brushes or pads to clean the
breadmaker or bread pan surfaces.

The Unit Body, Lid and Inner Case

Wipe the outside of the unit body and lid with a damp cloth after each use,

•

Remove any flour, bread crumbs or other materials from the inside of the inner case using

•

a damp sponge or cloth or a small, portable vacuum cleaner.

The Bread Pan and Kneading Blade

Both the bread pan and the kneading blade are coated with a nonstick surface.Do not use

•

any cleaners or utensils that could scratch this surface.
The nonstick surface may change in appearance after continued use. This is caused by

•

moisture and steam and has no effect on its use or quality.

26

Remove the bread pan with kneading blade from the inner case and wipe with a damp

•

sponge or dish cloth making sure the kneading blade mounting shaft is also very clean.
The bread pan interior can be wiped with soapy water, but do not submerge bread pan in
water. Clean after each use and dry thoroughly.

Do not soak either part in water or wash in a dishwasher.

•

If it is difficult to remove the kneading blade from the bread pan, fill the bread pan with

•

warm water and let it stand a few minutes to allow any baked-on bread dough to soften.
If the hole in the kneading blade becomes clogged, clean it out with a soft bristle brush or

•

wooden or plastic toothpicks.

Before Storing the Breadmaker

Ma ke sure the breadmaker base has cooled completely an all parts have been thoroughly

•

cleaned and dri e d .
L e ave the lid open until the breadmaker is completely cool.This will avoid the fo rmation of

•

a ny moisture in the inner case.

A ny servicing requiring disassembl y, other than the above cleaning, should be perfo rmed by an
a u t h o ri zed service representative.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What has happened to the kneading blade ?

It may have been baked into the bottom of the loaf of bread. See step 12 on page 14 fo r
h ow to remove the kneading blade from the loaf.

W hy is bread flour used in most of the recipes ?

Bread flour is high in protein.When kneaded the protein produces gluten that gives bread
a strong structure more tolerant of va riations in the recipe, weather conditions, etc., than all­p u rpose flour.

Can I use all-purpose flour in my breadmaker ?

You may use all-purpose flour, howeve r, the bread may be lower in volume and the tex t u r e
will be slightly different than bread made with bread flour. Because the bread structure is
less strong than when bread flour is used, breads made with all-purpose flour are not as
tolerant to additional ingredients such as fruit, grains or ve g e t a bl e s.

Can I use self-rising flour in my breadmaker ?

N o, the leavening in self-rising flour interferes with the yeast, and the result will not be
s a t i s fa c t o ry.

What is gluten ?

Gluten is the insoluble protein found in wheat flours. Hard wheat has a higher gluten
c o n t e n t than soft wheat. Gluten is fo rmed when liquid is added to flour and kneaded.
Gluten is the foundation of a good loaf of bread.

27

Can I use my favorite bread recipes in my breadmaker ?

You can if you are willing to ex p e ri m e n t .U n fo rt u n a t e l y, there is no tri e d - a n d - t rue fo rmu l a
for doing this because bread recipes va ry.The recipe needs to be scaled down to fit the
flour restrictions of your breadmaker (42⁄3 cups for BAKE settings, 42⁄3 cups for DOUGH
s e t t i n g ) .You will have to figure amounts mathematically. ( For ex a m p l e, if a favo rite recipe
uses 71⁄2 to 8 cups of flour, because your breadmaker has a maximum amount of 42⁄3 c u p s
of flour for baked recipes, you could begin by using 4 cups of flour and one-half of the
amount of remaining ingr e d i e n t s.) Use the same order of adding ingredients to the bread
pan as recommended in our recipes.
