Rustic Italian loaf from Canadian living breads and pizzas

This has a very wet dough and due to this I use the bread machine on the dough cycle, stopping the cycle just before it kneads the dough down. After this it’s fairly easy (use lots of flour on work surface)... read more >

Bread Machine Baking Revised

Sweet potato rye bread : page 133

This book is full of really good bread recipes and I've made many of them. All the breads can be baked in the oven rather than the machine.
This makes a very good bread. I used olive oil for the butter and soy milk powder since that's what I had. This makes a fairly small loaf so I make the larger recipe option.

Karen's herb oatmeal potato bread : page 177

This is an excellent potato bread; I especially like it with fresh herbs from the garden (I often use rosemary and thyme). I do find that it definitely needs more flour, so I add about 1/4 cup more than stated. This one rises well in the machine, makes great rolls, and is great with soups or for sandwiches. One of the many good breads in this book.
