I've found a quick and easy way to avoid buying those expensive mixes for
bread machines. I make up the mixes myself and put them in ziploc bags for
future use. My recipe, per bag is as follows:
First ingredient, (yeast goes first, so it'll remain on the top of the
ingedients when the bag is dumped into the bread machine), 1 packet or tblspn
of yeast
1 teas. salt
2 tblspns sugar
3-1/4 cups sifted flour
When you need to make the bread, simply put 2 tablespoons of oil with 1-1/8
cup water into the machine, then dump your mix on top. Bake according to
machine instructions.
I usually make up a dozen of these at a time. They cost about 35 cents each
as opposed to 2 or 3 dollars each in the store. They're also easy to add
herbs and seasoning to if a savory bread is needed.
