Bread problem
When making bread in my bread machine I am having a minor problem. The
bread slices break apart easily. I am using the regular white bread recipe from the machine manual. Is there anything I can change or add to the recipe to fix this? Or can you suggest a better bread machine recipe? TIA -- I love a good meal! That's why I don't cook. |

I use an unbleached baking flour (Seal of Minnesota) and am very happy with the results . When using AP flour my bread was just "OK" , now it's a lot better . -- Snag Illegitimi non carborundum |

Also bread machine yeast. Yes, loaf rises well - fills the machine nicely. I tried AP flour and active dry yeast but the loaf was very small, lumpy and dense. Barely edible. -- I love a good meal!

Barely edible. > > Yeah , I saw that post too . I suggest you try adding a tablespoon or two more water than the recipe calls for . The moisture content of flour can vary from bag to bag . If you have loaf pans (mine are 2 3/4 x 4 1/4 x 8 1/2 , make a 1 lb loaf) Try this recipe using the dough only setting on your machine . 1 1/4 c hot water 1/3 c veggie oil 1/2 tbsp salt 2 1/2 tbsp sugar 3 1/2 cups flour 1 rounded tbsp yeast Add to machine in order listed , process on dough cycle . Divide into 2 loaves at end of cycle , flatten and roll up the dough and place into well oiled loaf pans - I use olive oil cooking spray . Spray tops of loaves with oil too , cover with wax paper or clean dish towel for 30-45 minutes - I bake when it's about 1 1/2 inches over the pan. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes plus/minus or until browned how you like it , lightly butter tops of fresh loaves and turn out onto a wire rack to cool . Leaving it in the pan makes it soggy ... I use this recipe for all my loaves and buns , but I use the stand mixer and turn the dough out into a Pyrex bowl for the first rise . -- Snag Illegitimi non carborundum |

Hard to recommend a change when we don't know what you are starting from. Next is are you trying to cut it when still hot? That can cause that (mostly with white breads). |

Local flour must be low gluten. Can be adjusted with Vital Wheat Gluten. Normally about 1/2ts per cup of flour but may not need that much. |
