granary bread flour
ingredients
The major ingredient in bread making is flour, so selecting
the right one is the key to a successful loaf.
A combination of white, wholemeal and rye flours mixed
with malted whole wheat grains, which adds both texture
and flavour. Use on its own or in combination with strong
white flour.
wheat flours
Wheat flours make the best loaves. Wheat consists of an
outer husk, often referred to as bran, and an inner kernel,
which contains the wheat germ and endosperm. It is the
protein within the endosperm which, when mixed with
water, forms gluten. Gluten stretches like elastic and the
gases given off by the yeast during fermentation are
trapped, making the dough rise.
non-wheat flours
Other flours such as rye can be used with white and
wholemeal bread flours to make traditional breads like
pumpernickel or rye bread. Adding even a small amount
adds a distinctive tang. Do not use on its own, as it will
produce a sticky dough, which will produce a dense
heavy loaf. Other grains such as millet, barley, buckwheat,
cornmeal and oatmeal are low in protein and therefore do
not develop sufficient gluten to produce a traditional loaf.
white flours
These flours have the outer bran and wheat germ
removed, leaving the endosperm which is milled into a
white flour. It is essential to use strong white flour or white
bread flour, because this has a higher protein level,
necessary for gluten development. Do not use plain white
flour or self-raising flour for making yeast risen breads in
your bread maker, as inferior loaves will be produced.
There are several brands of white bread flour available,
use a good quality one, preferably unbleached, for the
best results.
These flours can be used successfully in small quantities.
Try replacing 10-20% of white bread flour with any of
these alternatives.
salt
A small quantity of salt is essential in bread making for
dough development and flavour. Use fine table salt or sea
salt, not coarsely ground salt which is best kept for
sprinkling on top of hand-shaped rolls, to give a crunchy
texture. Low-salt substitutes are best avoided as most do
not contain sodium.
wholemeal flours
Wholemeal flours include the bran and wheat germ, which
gives the flour a nutty flavour and produces a coarser
textured bread. Again strong wholemeal or wholemeal
bread flour must be used. Loaves made with 100%
wholemeal flour will be more dense than white loaves. The
bran present in the flour inhibits the release of gluten, so
wholemeal doughs rise more slowly. Use the special
wholewheat programs to allow time for the bread to rise.
For a lighter loaf, replace part of the wholemeal flour with
white bread flour.
G
Salt strengthens the gluten structure and makes the
dough more elastic.
Salt inhibits yeast growth to prevent over-rising and
stops the dough collapsing.
G
G
Too much salt will prevent the dough rising sufficiently.
sweeteners
Use white or brown sugars, honey, malt extract, golden
syrup, maple syrup, molasses or treacle.
G
Sugar and liquid sweeteners contribute to the colour of
bread, helping to add a golden finish to the crust.
Sugar attracts moisture, so improving the keeping
strong brown flour
G
This can be used in combination with white flour, or on its
own. It contains about 80-90% of the wheat kernel and
so it produces a lighter loaf, which is still full of flavour. Try
using this flour on the basic white cycle, replacing 50% of
the strong white flour with strong brown flour. You may
need to add a little extra liquid.
qualities.
G
Sugar provides food for the yeast, although not
essential, as modern types of dried yeast are able to
feed on the natural sugars and starches found in the
flour, it will make the dough more active.
G
Sweet breads have a moderate level of sugar with the
fruit, glaze or icing adding extra sweetness. Use the
sweet bread cycle for these breads.
G
If substituting a liquid sweetener for sugar then the total
liquid content of the recipe will need to be reduced
slightly.

fats and oils
If you wish to use fresh yeast note the following:
6g fresh yeast = 1tsp dried yeast
A small amount of fat or oil is often added to bread to
give a softer crumb. It also helps to extend the freshness
of the loaf. Use butter, margarine or even lard in small
quantities up to 25 g (1 oz) or 22ml (11⁄2 tbsp.) vegetable
oil. Where a recipe uses larger amounts so the flavour is
more noticeable, butter will provide the best result.
Mix the fresh yeast with 1tsp sugar and 2tbsp of the
water (warm). Leave for 5 minutes until frothy.
Then add to the rest of the ingredients in the pan.
To get the best results the yeast quantity may need to
be adjusted.
G
G
Use the amounts stated in the recipes; too much could
cause the bread to over-rise and spill over the top of
the bread pan.
Once a sachet of yeast is opened, it should be used
within 48 hours, unless stated otherwise by the
manufacturer. Re-seal after use. Resealed opened
sachets can be stored in the freezer until required.
Use dried yeast before its use by date, as the potency
gradually deteriorates with time.
You may find dried yeast, which has been
manufactured especially for use in bread machines.
This will also produce good results, though you may
need to adjust the quantities recommended.
G
Olive oil or sunflower oil can be used instead of butter,
adjust the liquid content for amounts over 15ml (3 tsp)
accordingly. Sunflower oil is a good alternative if you
are concerned about the cholesterol level.
Do not use low fat spreads as they contain up to 40%
water so do not have the same properties as butter.
G
liquid
G
G
Some form of liquid is essential; usually water or milk is
used. Water produces a crisper crust than milk. Water is
often combined with skimmed milk powder. This is
essential if using the time delay as fresh milk will
deteriorate. For most programs water straight from the
tap is fine, however on the eco program it needs to be
lukewarm.
G
On very cold days measure the water and leave to
stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before use. If
using milk straight from the fridge do likewise.
G
Buttermilk, yoghurt, soured cream and soft cheeses
such as ricotta, cottage and fromage frais can all be
used as part of the liquid content to produce a more
moist, tender crumb. Buttermilk adds a pleasant,
slightly sour note, not unlike that found in country style
breads and sour doughs.
G
Eggs may be added to enrich the dough, improve the
colour of the bread and help to add structure and
stability to the gluten during rising. If using eggs reduce
the liquid content accordingly. Place the egg in a
measuring cup and top up with liquid to the correct
level for the recipe.
yeast
Yeast is available both fresh and dried. All the recipes in
this book have been tested using easy blend, fast action
dried yeast which does not require dissolving in water
first. It is placed in a well in the flour where it is kept dry
and separate from the liquid until mixing commences.
G
For best results use dried yeast. The use of fresh yeast
is not recommended as tends to give more variable
results than dried yeast. Do not use fresh yeast with
the delay timer.

adapting your own recipes
removing, slicing and storing bread
G
After you have baked some of the recipes supplied you
may wish to adapt a few of your own favourites, which
previously have been mixed and kneaded by hand. Start
by selecting one of the recipes in this booklet, which is
similar to your recipe, and use it as a guide.
For best results, once your loaf is baked, remove it
from the machine and turn out of the bread pan
immediately, although your bread maker will keep it
warm for up to 1 hour if you are not around.
G
Remove the bread pan from the machine using oven
gloves, even if it is during the keep warm cycle. Turn
the pan upside-down and shake several times to
release the cooked bread. If the bread is difficult to
remove, try gently knocking the corner of the bread
pan on a wooden board, or rotate the base of the shaft
underneath the bread pan.
Read through the following guidelines to help you, and be
prepared to make adjustments as you go along.
G
Make sure you use the correct quantities for the bread
maker. Do not exceed the recommended maximum. If
necessary, reduce the recipe to match the flour and
liquid quantities in the bread maker recipes.
G
The kneader should remain inside the bread pan when
G
Always add the liquid to the bread pan first. Separate
the bread is released, however occasionally it may
remain inside the loaf of bread. If so, remove it before
slicing the bread, using a heat resistant plastic utensil
to prise it out. Do not use a metal implement as this
may scratch the non-stick coating on the kneader.
Leave the bread to cool for at least 30 minutes on a
wire rack, to allow the steam to escape. The bread will
be difficult to slice if cut hot.
the yeast from the liquid by adding after the flour.
G
Replace fresh yeast with easy blend dried yeast. Note:
6g fresh yeast = 1tsp (5ml) dried yeast.
G
Use skimmed milk powder and water instead of fresh
milk, if using the timer delay setting.
G
G
If your conventional recipe uses egg, add the egg as
part of the total liquid measurement.
G
Keep the yeast separate from the other ingredients in
storing
the pan until mixing commences.
Home-made bread does not contain any preservatives so
should be eaten within 2-3 days of baking. If not eating
immediately, wrap in foil or place in a plastic bag and seal.
G
Check the consistency of the dough during the first few
minutes of mixing. Bread machines require a slightly
softer dough, so you may need to add extra liquid. The
dough should be wet enough to gradually relax back.
G
Crispy French-style bread will soften on storage, so is
best left uncovered until sliced.
G
If you wish to keep your bread for a few days, store in
the freezer. Slice the bread before freezing, for easy
removal of the amount required.

G
Vegetables such as grated carrot, courgette or cooked
mashed potato can be added for flavour. You will need
to reduce the liquid content of the recipe as these
foods contain water. Start with less water and check
the dough as it begins to mix and adjust if it is
necessary.
general hints and tips
The results of your bread making are dependent on a
number of different factors, such as the quality of
ingredients, careful measuring, temperature and humidity.
To help ensure successful results, there are a few hints
and tips worth noting.
G
G
Do not exceed the quantities given in recipes as you
may damage your bread machine.
The bread machine is not a sealed unit and will be
affected by temperature. If it is a very hot day or the
machine is used in a hot kitchen, then the bread is likely
to rise more, than if it is cold. The optimum room
temperature is between 20°C /68°F and 24°C/75°F.
If the bread does not rise well try replacing the tap
water with bottled water or boiled and cooled water. If
your tap water is heavily chlorinated and fluorinated it
may affect the bread rising. Hard water can also have
this effect.
G
On very cold days let the water from the tap stand at
G
It is worth checking the dough after about 5 minutes of
continuous kneading. Keep a flexible rubber spatula
next to the machine, so you can scrape down the
sides of the pan if some of the ingredients stick to the
corners. Do not place near the kneader, or impede its
movement. Also check the dough to see if it is the
correct consistency. If the dough is crumbly or the
machine seems to be labouring, add a little extra water.
If the dough is sticking to the sides of the pan and
doesn’t form a ball, add a little extra flour.
room temperature for 30 minutes before use. Likewise
with ingredients from the fridge.
Use all ingredients at room temperature unless stated
otherwise in the recipe eg. for the eco cycle you will
need to warm the liquid.
G
G
Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order
suggested in the recipe. Keep the yeast dry and
separate from any other liquids added to the pan, until
mixing commences.
G
Accurate measuring is probably the most crucial factor
G
Do not open the lid during the proving or baking cycle
as this may cause the bread to collapse.
for a successful loaf. Most problems are due to
inaccurate measuring or omitting an ingredient. Follow
either metric or imperial measurements; they are not
interchangeable. Use the measuring cup and spoon
provided.
G
Always use fresh ingredients, within their use by date.
Perishable ingredients such as milk, cheese, vegetables
and fresh fruits may deteriorate, especially in warm
conditions. These should only be used in breads, which
are made immediately.
G
Do not add too much fat as it forms a barrier between
the yeast and flour, slowing down the action of the
yeast, which could result in a heavy compact loaf.
G
Cut butter and other fats into small pieces before
adding to the bread pan.
G
Replace part of the water with fruit juices such as
orange, apple or pineapple when making fruit flavoured
breads.
G
Vegetable cooking juices can be added as part of the
liquid. Water from cooking potatoes contains starch,
which is an additional source of food for the yeast, and
helps to produce a well-risen, softer, longer lasting loaf.
