I wanted to share the magic of my trusted Bread Machine with you, but then she gave up the ghost, so I had to resort to the manual version, still turned out great with a little more effort!
The magic of the bread machine is that I can place everything into it at bedtime, and wake up to the aroma of freshly baked bread reaching all the way through to the bedroom in the morning!
Not knowing she was not going to do her job this time, I trustingly placed the ingredients into the bread machine.
Ingredients
Place into bread machine or bowl in order given below:
A nice big blob of Butter
3 tablespoons Honey
1 teaspoon Salt
200ml natural Yogurt, at room temperature
250ml warm Water
Add:
3 1/2 cups Wholemeal Flour
Handful each of Raisins, Sunflower Seeds, Flax Seeds
7 grams Dried Yeast
So all this had to be tossed into my Kenwood mixer for a good kneading,
quite a messy job getting it in, but the dough came together nicely.
I recently discovered that the Wonderbag I wrote about in one of my 'Dead Posts', Cooking in a Fabric Bag is fantastic for proving yeast dough.
Snugly inside the Wonderbag
Hardly an hour later and dough has risen more than double in size.
I used two smaller bread pans, sprayed them with non stick cooking spray and sprinkled sunflower seeds on the base.
Dough evenly divided with more sunflower seeds sprinkled on top.
Nicely risen now, and ready to be baked at 180 C in a fan oven.
Beautifully baked bread with the most divine aroma.
A nice big blob of butter will soon be melting on that slice of hot bread; note half the loaf has already been eaten!
Hope you enjoyed watching my breadbake, wish I could give you a slice :)
So awesome, love the pics and cannot wait to try this. No bread machine so will be using my trusty Russell Hobbs hand mixer

That will also work or hand kneading is good as well, thanks for stopping by@aneeqa. Enjoy your bread :)

Very good, I think that doing it on a machine is much easier by hand it is a bit difficult the process and I made a ponque by hand and it was difficult but it came out

Looks very yummy. I noticed you also use the Eureka Mills flour. Don't you just love it, we also use it and honestly believe it gives our pizza dough recipe the edge.

Hey @biyanoor, thanks for stopping by :) It should work if it's a convection oven, won't have a nice crust in a regular microwave oven. Let me know how it turns out :)

No better tasting food has ever been devised by human hand than freshly made bread with cold butter!!

For sure @stahlberg, no other bake beats that smell and you're right, the butter has to be cold! I see you're Swedish, we run a little guesthouse here in South Africa, had lovely Swedish guests here for two months, they brought us a beautiful little Dala Horse which is a nice reminder of them.
Thanks for stopping by :)

Thanks @shawnamawna, are you gluten intolerant or on banting? I would have bad withdrawal if I could not have a slice of hot bread :(
Nice meeting you :)

I'm gluten intolerant. Actually, I am grain intolerant. It's been so long since I had anything resembling bread I can't remember the taste to miss it. But I do remember texture.

I love recipes that have measurements in "blobs" , those are units of measure that I understand . A pinch and a dash are two others that I can relate too.
Hot bread and butter is a meal all by itself to me.
The self contained bread machine sounds like the cats meow for bread lovers.
Good to see you over here @thesteemengine .

Haha mr Papper, you'll notice the important ingredients is more precise but my blobs & handfuls make me sound like my gran & Mom, they could never give me precise quantities for their bread. That bread machine certainly is a magic invention, will definitely replace it if hubby can't fix it! Glad to be part of @thesteemengine, my timing not so good on Discord, when I take a peek, all the chatting is over! Hope to catch you there in real time soon :)

Hey lizelle, I meant to tell you that you can put any cooking related stuff in the "dining car" @thesteemengine , you are only allowed one post per day in baggage car but the dining car is not restricted as to the amount, it is restricted to food items.

Yum! I have a breadmaker myself that I keep being too lazy to put things in. Maybe this is the push I need to finally go and do it hehe. And this one was the manual way too. Do you feel it turns out better this way vs bread machine?

Hi @eonwarped, once you start using the bread machine you won't stop, so nice waking up to freshly baked bread! I can't eat mass produced bread any more, got totally spoilt. The only downside is it makes a funny sized loaf, not ideal for sandwiches but the texture is perfect. Doing it the manual way is more work but you can pick the bread pan size. Start making that bread :)
