Most of your old favorites as well as your new bread recipes can be prepared in the
Betty Crocker BCF1690 Bread Machine. Here are some tips for recipe conversion:
ž
If your recipe yields two conventional loaves, cut the recipe in half to make
one loaf. The bread maker makes only one loaf at a time.
ž
Do not exceed a total of 5 cups of flour. Use the recipes in this book as your
guide when converting other recipes.
ž
All-purpose flour can be used when baking bread, but you will get better
results with bread flour in the bread machine.
ž
Always measure and add water or other liquids first, followed by the salt.
Then add ingredients such as liquid sweetener, shortening, eggs, etc.
Finally, measure the dry ingredients into the bread pan in the order listed.
Carefully place active dry yeast on top of the dry ingredients, avoiding
contact with the liquid and salt.
ž
To substitute dry milk for fresh, use approximately 2 tablespoons dry milk
plus 1 cup water for every cup of milk.
Caution: Fresh milk, cream, eggs, sour cream, etc., should not be used if
using the TIME keys on your bread machine for delayed baking.
