Hawaiian Sweet Bread

I love, love, love the Kings Hawaiian sweet rolls, so when I found this recipe online for a bread machine,  I had to give it a try.  It turned out really well.  Hubby said it was better than my usual bread recipe,  and as usual,  there were no left overs.

Here's what you need:

        3/4 cup pineapple juice

        1 egg

        2 tablespoons vegetable oil

        2 1/2 tablespoons honey

        3/4 teaspoon salt

        3 cups bread flour

        2 tablespoons dry milk

        2 teaspoons fast rising yeast or 2 teaspoons quick-rising yeast

Place ingredients in bread machine.  My machine calls for the wet ingredients first then add the dry.

I used the sweet cycle on my machine,  but the recipe said you could use white or sweet.  I also changed it to light crust. 

In 2 hours 50 minutes,  I had a delicious loaf of sweet bread.

This is definitely a recipe that will be repeated in our household.  Enjoy!!!

Garlic - Parmesan Bread

I don't know about you,  but my house is full of bread eaters.  We especially like to have bread with our pasta.  So, when I found this recipe, I knew it was going to go with the next spaghetti meal.  It was delicious!!   The best part, it was so simple. You just throw the ingredients in the bread machine and push a button.  Love it!!!

Here's what you need:

1 1/3 cup water
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
3 cup bread flour
2 1/2 teaspoon yeast
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder -- (or to taste)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese -- up to 1 c

Place the ingredients in your machine in the order listed, except for the last two they need to be added on the last knead cycle.  I used the basic setting on my machine so I added them at the 2:30 mark.

I said it before, delicious!! The only problem I found with it is that this recipe only made a 1 lb loaf. That is just not big enough for my bread loving family.  I think I need a second bread machine. 

Honey Whole Wheat Bread

One of my biggest weaknesses is bread!! I'll admit it.  That is the first step to getting help, right?  This one can't be all that bad, though.  It's WHOLE WHEAT!!!!  Well???   It was very tasty. 

Fresh out of the bread machine.  Mmmmmmmmmm....... And yes, I've already cut myself a piece.  If I don't,  I won't get any.   I think I need another bread machine to make two loaves at a time. 

This one is simple.  Here's what you need to make a 2 lb loaf:
             1 1/2 cups warm tap water
             1/2 cup honey
             1 tablespoon oil
             1 teaspoon salt
             4 cups whole wheat flour
             2 teaspoons active dry yeast

Measure the ingredients into the bread machine in the order listed.  Make a well in the flour and sprinkle the yeast into it.  Set the machine to it's whole wheat cycle and press start.  How easy was that?  When it's finished, take the bread out and let cool before slicing.  This will be gone in no time flat.  Guess I'd better get started on another loaf.
