Bread Machine - Onion Bread Recipe

Step 1

Bread Machine Settings - Basic, Light Color & 1.5 lb

Step 2

Dice the onion half into small chunks. Saute the diced onions in a frying pan with a small amount of butter or vegetable oil until golden brown.

Step 3

Unplug bread machine & remove bread pan. Pour the milk & softened butter into the bread pan first and then add the other ingredients. Place the bread machine yeast in last and the yeast should not touch the liquid, salt or the hot sautéed onions (until the bread machine is turned on and the ingredients start to be mixed together by the bread machine). You can create a little hole or ditch in the top of the flour and place the yeast in this hole in order to keep the yeast separate for the salt, etc.

Step 4

Place the bread pan (with ingredients) back into unplugged bread machine.

Step 5

Plug in the bread machine. Enter the correct settings (basic, light color & 1.5 lb) and press the "start" button.

Step 6

When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, you should unplug the bread machine. Remove the bread and place it on a cooling rack. Use oven mitts when removing the bread machine container (bread loaf pan) as it will be very hot!

Step 7

After removing the bread, don’t forget to remove the mixing paddle if it is stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts as the mixing paddle will be very hot coming out of the bread machine. Or wait until the bread is completely cooled and then remove the mixing paddle.

Step 8

Before using your bread machine, you should read the bread machine manufacturer’s  instructions in order to use the bread machine effectively and safely.
