Recipes FAQ

Can I use all-purpose flour instead of bread flour?

Bread flour works best for this recipe since it has a higher gluten content, which is needed to create the structure of the bread. However, if you don't have bread flour, you can use all-purpose flour instead.

Can I make this recipe without a bread machine?

Yes, you can. You will need to knead the dough by hand or using a stand mixer with a dough hook. Once the dough has risen, shape it into a loaf and let it rise again before baking in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for around 30 minutes.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to measure the ingredients accurately to ensure the best results.
  • You can brush the loaf with melted butter or egg wash before baking to give it a shiny crust.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent it from becoming gummy.
