Feather Bread (Bread Maker - for Bread - Rolls - and Buns.)

Step 1

Be sure to whisk that flour before measuring - I soften the margarine in the micro wave.

Step 2

Place ingredients in order listed with the flour and yeast going in last.

Step 3

Choose your cycle.During the first mixing check to assure your dough has the right amount of flour and water - dough should look nice and shiny.Flours differ so you may need to add lukewarm water a teaspoon at a time if it is too dry- a sprinkling of flour if too sticky. Never add more then 3 tablespoons of either the flour or the water. In my breadmaker the whisked flour and the carefully measured ingredients are right on. Makes a large loaf.

Step 4

FOR DOUGH use dough cycle - when cycle complete shape into bread, buns or rolls. I often make braided loaves topping with sesame seeds.

Step 5

Brush tops with softened butter or margarine.Rise 20 to 30 minutes or until double in size.

Step 6

Bake in a 350 oven until nicely golden brown brushing with softened butter or margarine just before they are done - I brush them again when I take them out - makes for nice tops.

Step 7

Time varies - check your machine. Cooking time is machine and baking time.
