How to Make a Bread Machine Mix
A supply of quart-size, self-sealing bags and you are ready to start making mixes.
Some stick-on notes or labels or adhesive labels to write instructions on.
Note: Once the mixes are prepared youll need to store them in a cool, dry, dark place.
Light Wheat Bread Mix
Measure into the quart bag:
1 C. bread flour or all-purpose flour*
1 C. whole wheat flour
2 T. dried milk solids
1 T. gluten*
1 T. wheat germ (or 2 t. graham flour)
1 1/2 t. salt
2 T. brown sugar**
*If you are using bread flour, omit the gluten.
**Or leave out the brown sugar and note that you must add 2 T of honey on the label.
Stir all of this with spoon or spatula. Or just shake it around to mix. Then add another:
1 C. white flour
Write the following on the label: Put into the bread pan of the bread machine 1 C. apple cider or orange juice (or 1/2 C. water and 1/2 C. milk), 1 1/2 T. shortening (lard, butter, margarine, oil), then the bread mix, 2 t. yeast and start.
