Sweet - The sweet setting is for baking breads with high amounts of sugar, fats, and proteins, all of which tend to increase browning.

Quick - Use this setting for baking bread quickly - time is slightly longer than Express Bake but the texture will be finer.

Express Bake(1.5LB) - Use this setting for baking smaller loaves of bread in under one hour. Express Bake (2.0LB) - Use this setting for baking larger loaves of bread in under one hour.

Gluten Free - Use this setting for baking gluten free breads. It is necessary to make sure that all ingredients being used are marked as gluten free. Note that wheat-free does not always mean Gluten-free, you must read all labels carefully.

EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker Setting:

Making Bread In Under 1 Hour

Your OSTER® breadmaker can bake great bread in under 1 hour.

This is called the “EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker” setting. EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting loaves are a little different from loaves baked on non-EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker settings. Make sure to try the different settings to see which of them you prefer.

There are a few things you should know about the EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker settings that are different than the other settings.

EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting breads tend to have a darker, thicker crust than other kinds of bread. Sometimes there will be a crack in the top of the crust. This is because baking is done at higher temperatures. They also tend to be shorter, denser loaves.

You CANNOT use the Delay Timer for the EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker settings. This would cool the liquid ingredients and affect the way that the bread rises.

You CANNOT use the “Crust Color” buttons for EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting breads.

DO NOT open the cover while making EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting breads.

If the loaf is hard to remove from the pan let it sit for about 5 minutes to cool. Gently shake the bread out of the pan and wait for 15 minutes before slicing.

If you wish to bake another Loaf of bread, you must let the bread maker cool for

20 minutes with the cover open.

YOU CAN use standard bread mixes for EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting breads, but the results may not be as good as the results when using the recipes within this book

EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker Setting Tips and Hints

Yeast

Always use a fast rising yeast. DO NOT use active dry yeast for EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker settings because the loaves will be much shorter when baked.

Liquids

Always use hot water in the range of 115°–125° F. You must use a cooking thermometer to gauge the temperature; hotter water can kill the yeast while cooler water may not activate it.

Salt

As a rule, you should use LESS salt for EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker setting breads. Less salt provides you with a higher loaf. Make sure to follow your Oster® Breadmaker recipe suggestions for best results.

Other Ingredients

Make sure all other ingredients (like flour, sugar, dry milk, butter, etc.) are at room temperature. Always use bread flour for the EXPRESS BAKE Breadmaker settings.
