Note: It is important that you DO NOT press the “Start/Stop” button while the breadmaker is making bread. If you do, the machine will turn off and you will need to start over again, from scratch.

Note: It is important that you should not raise the lid for this recipe. (For other recipes you try later, you will need to raise the lid to add nuts, fruits, or other ingredients.)

Caution: The breadmaker is very hot DO NOT handle the machine while it’s operating. DO NOT lift the lid while the breadmaker is baking bread.

Bread Machine Stages (for 2 lb. loaves)

It’s fun to watch your bread being made through the viewing window. For the basic cycle, you can expect the following things to happen as the timer counts down to zero.

To begin: The ingredients are kneaded for the first time (5 minutes) At 3:20, the dough rests for 5 minutes

At 3:15, the dough is kneaded for the second time (20 minutes) At 2:55, the dough begins to rise (39 minutes)

At 2:16, the dough is “punched down”(10 seconds)

At 2:16, the dough continues to rise (25 minutes and 50 seconds) At 1:50, the dough is shaped (15 seconds)

At 1:50, the dough comes to the last period of rise (48 minutes and 45 seconds) At 0:60, the dough begins to bake (60 minutes)

At 0:00, the bread is finished.

After the bread is baked

Caution: Do not put your face near the lid when you open the breadmaker, hot steam may escape that could burn you.

Important: The breadmaker has an automatic “keep warm” setting that will keep your bread warm for up to one hour, we recommend however to remove the bread from the breadmaker right away to preserve its freshness.

1Use pot holders or oven mitts to carefully lift the pan by its handle from the breadmaker.

2Turn the pan upside down onto a cooling rack and gently shake it until the bread comes out. If it sticks, take a rubber spatula (metal can damage the pan’s surface) and carefully go around the sides of the loaf until the bread comes out.

3If the kneading blade comes out with the bread, use the included kneading blade removal tool to remove it from the loaf, Remember, it will be hot!

Allow the bread to cool for 15 minutes before slicing and enjoying it.

Important: If you wish to make another loaf of bread right away, please allow the breadmaker to cool down for 10 to 15 minutes with the cover open and the pan removed.
