HOW TO USE—BASIC STEPS IN MAKING BREAD

Add knead bar to shaft in bread pan.
2.Add ingredients to pan in order listed in recipe, MAKING SURE to add any liquid ingredients first, followed by dry ingredients, then butter or margarine and lastly the yeast.
After the dry ingredients are added to the pan, tap pan to settle, then level dry ingredients, pushing some of the flour mixture into the corners of the pan. This will prevent any liquid from seeping up from the corners. Make a slight well in center of dry ingredients and add the yeast to the well. This is especially important when using the Delay Start Timer to prevent the yeast from getting wet.
