Beginner’s guide to baking your first loaf

The following instructions are to be used when making Bread or Dough recipes from the recipe section of this book.

For making Gluten Free bread, please see “Gluten Free Bread” on page R21.

All recipes use local ingredients and Australian Standard Metric Measuring tools (cup, spoons and weighing scales) for accuracy in producing a 750g or 1kg loaf of bread. The actual weight of the baked loaf will vary depending on the weight of raw ingredients used.

Remove and safely discard any packaging materials and promotional labels before using the Baker’s Oven for the first time.

Step 1: Open the lid and remove the bread pan

Open the lid and remove the bread pan from the Baker’s Oven by holding the handle and lifting straight up.

Always remove the bread pan from the Baker’s Oven before adding ingredients to ensure ingredients are not spilt into the baking chamber and the element.

Before using for the first time, we recommend that the inside of the bread pan and the kneading blades are washed with warm soapy water, rinsed and dried thoroughly. Do not immerse the bread pan in water.

Step 2: Insert the kneading blade

It is important that the kneading blade is properly inserted on the shaft in the base of the bread pan by aligning the flat edge on the inside of the kneading blade with the flat side of the shaft. If the blade is not inserted correctly the ingredients may not be mixed and kneaded properly.

Step 3: Add ingredients into the bread pan

It is IMPORTANT that the ingredients are added in the correct order listed in the recipe and that the ingredients are measured and weighed accurately or the dough may not mix correctly or rise sufficiently.

All ingredients should be at room temperature 20-25°C. Ingredients should be added in the following order:

1.Liquid ingredients

2.Fat/Oil

3.Dry ingredients: salt, sugar, flour

4.Yeast

If using Prepackaged Bread Mixes, refer to page R30-R32.

Note

Mound the flour into the pan, make a small hollow in the centre and place the yeast there. If the yeast contacts the water before the kneading, the bread may not rise well. This is important when using the PRESET TIMER.

Note

Step 4: Return the bread pan to the machine

Insert the bread pan into the machine as follows:

1.Place the bread pan into the baking chamber and locate the drive mechanism of the pan directly onto the drive mechanism in the baking chamber.

2.Push the bread pan down firmly until it clicks in position.
