Hello everyone.... I'm new to the list and am enjoying it already. I
received a Breadman Plus machine for Christmas and have gotten mixed
results. I also received a Pizza Stone so the first dough I tried was
pizza crust. It has turned out great, due in part I'm sure to the
stone......
I also tried a Pineapple Coconut bread with cream cheese. I got the
recipe from a bread machine cookbook, which called for baking it on the
"regular" cycle but I used the dough cycle and re-shaped it for a loaf
pan and baked it in the oven. It also turned out very nicely.
Now for my problem that I'm hoping you all can help me with.....
Whenever I make the dough for rolls, it seems to do fine until I bake
them. Although they are soft inside, the outside is too hard and the
next day, almost inedible. What am I doing wrong??? I usually put the
dough in the oven to rise [warmed to 250 degrees, then turned off] with a
towel over the bread in the muffin tins. Perhaps the oven rising is the
problem. Please help. I'd appreciate a private reply in addition to the
list. thanks.
