Bread Recipe for Bread Machine

[Guest guest]

Here is the bread recipe I use most every day. I wrote it up for my

husband or anyone else that might be in the house should I not be there.

(I am working on geting organized and delegating some of the diet

responsibilities - this is my first attempt - I hope it will work)

The 1 cup of dried beans equals 1 cup of bean flour if you don't grind

your own. Lima beans seem to have the most nutrients of the beans I've

used. I don't have a good breakdown of nutrients except what is printed

on the bag, anyone have better info? I alternate beans by whim, no real

reason, but would like to have a reason.

The following are optional: I just choose to enhance the bread.

2 tablespoons Flax Seed

1 tablespoon Rice Bran

2 tablespoons Calcium Powder

I have made this in my machine on several settings- regular crust, dark

crust, and rapid rise. I see no difference except for the time it takes.

The important thing for me is the removal of the mixing blade and pushing

the dough back into place. If I do that any setting seems to work. I hope

it works for you.

Sharon's Bean Bread Recipe for Bread Machine & Vita-Mix

1 cup Dried Beans: Place in dry mix container of Vita-Mix. On Variable

begin at #1 and Turn On. Gradually increase speed to #8 until the flour

dust begins to fly around bowl. Count to 10 and Turn Off.

Add to container. Mix gently with a fork. It's not important to mix

thoughly, but do mix them.

1 cup Tapioca Flour

1 cup Corn Starch

2 tablespoons Flax Seed

1 tablespoon Rice Bran

2 tablespoons Calcium Powder

2 teaspoons Xanthan Gum

1/2 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Unflavored Gelatin (Knox)

1 teaspoon Ener-G Egg Replacer

1+1/2 tablespoon Fructose Powder (Featherweight brand)

Wet ingredients; place all in one bowl, and mix well:

2 Eggs

3 tablespoons Canola Oil

1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar

1+1/2 cup Warm Water (maybe a bit more if needed to look like cake

batter)

Pour wet ingredients into bread machine pan. Slowly and carefully pour

dry ingredients over the wet ingredients.

On top of dry ingredients place:

1+1/2 teaspoons Dry Yeast (Saf or Red Star Brand ONLY)

Plug in bread machine. Select #7(Quick Rise) by pushing Select several

times. Push Start. The digital display will light up 2:50 and begin

mixing. Leave the top open and stand by with the yellow spatula, pair of

tongs, and a bowl of cold water. Run the dampened spatula around the

inside of the bread machine bowl to scrape down the dough several times

during mixing. At 2:32 the machine will stop mixing. With dampened

spatula, move the dough away from the center dough mixing blade until

blade is clear of dough and you can remove it using the dampened tongs.

With dampened spatula spread dough back into place and smooth top. Close

lid and return in 2+1/2 hours to remove bread from machine and pan.

Remove bread immediately when the machine stops or it will get soggy and

be no good. Place bread on rack to cool. Makes 1+1/2 pound loaf of bread.
