EVERYDAY BREAD (FRENCH BREAD) ABM BREAD MACHINE
This is our everyday bread that we use for sandwiches and toast. It's dairy and egg free which makes it a favorite of mine - this also makes it safe to use the bread machine timer. This recipe makes a 2 pound loaf, but you can easily halve it for smaller machines.

HEALTHY FRENCH BREAD LOAF (ABM / MACHINE)
This is a larger version of the other French Bread recipe I've posted - makes a 1 1/2lb loaf. It's a wonderfully open, light and delicious bread, and is actually slightly nicer than the smaller one I often make. It's egg-free, very low fat, sugar-free, and if using oil is dairy free, Kosher Pareve and suitable for vegetarians and vegans. I'm using this one more now that I have a new machine which makes larger and more conventional rectangular shaped loaves. It is based very heavily on a standard Panasonic machine recipe. I incorrectly listed this as suitable for diabetics, and most will be aware that white flour is more readily converted from complex to simple carbohydrates which will of course raise blood sugar levels.

Steps:
- The suggested Tsp of vinegar is an old bakers trick to help the loaf keep for longer and is used in place of the same amount of water. I use cider vinegar but white wine or clear rice vinegar would be fine. The loaf does taste better without it so if you can get through the bread within 24 hours or so then I recommend leaving it out.
- Remove pan from bread machine and place on scales (electronic ones are strongly recommended), and zero the scales.
- Add the vinegar to the pan if using it and the warm water to total 300g (essentially 300ml water weighs 300g).
- Weigh in the rest of the ingredients, ideally using the flour to cover the water if you can. (The times when I use oil, I usually cut it back to around 2/3 tablespoon, but most people would probably prefer the full tablespoon as listed).
- Transfer the pan back into the bread machine, select French bread cycle if available (or whole wheat cycle if not). My preference is for a dark/firm crust for this loaf. Start machine.
- Remove when done and allow to cool on a wire rack.

HONEY OATMEAL BREAD (ABM)
This bread recipe came off the back of the bread flour. I found it to be so good, just a "tad sweet', and its great toasted. Cook time is what is suggested on your ABM. For a softer crust, butter the crust of the bread and put in a plastic bag as soon as it comes out of the machine. This recipe makes a 1 1/2 pound loaf.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start baking. This will help it cream together with the sugar more easily.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help it rise evenly.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.
