I am, in the words of Gaby, in bread paradise.
from "The Bread Lover's Bread Machine Cookbook" by Beth Hensperger
for a 1 /2 pound loaf
- 1/3 c. milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 c. bread flour
- 2 Tbsp. sugar
- 2 tsp. gluten
- 3/4 tsp. salt
- 1 3/4 tsp. bread machine yeast
- 7 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- Place the ingredients, except the butter, in the pan according to the order in the manufacturer's instructions. (for mine it's wet, dry, then yeast)
- Set crust on medium and program for the Basic cycle. Press start.
- About 10 minutes into the second knead, open the lid while the machine is still running. Add a piece or two of butter at a time, until it is all incorporated. Close the lid.
- When the baking cycle ends, open the lid and let sit for 15 minutes. Remove the loaf from the pan and cool to room temperature before slicing.
