ONION BREAD
This coarsely textured bread has the delicate flavor of onion. This is not a soft bread. It is crusty and hearty and slightly dry. Sliced, it is perfect for building those famous Dagwood sandwiches. This bread is good eaten in crusty slabs either plain or buttered along side hot soup or cool, crisp salad. It's the bread of choice in my house.

Steps:
- Place the water, sugar, and yeast in the pan of your bread machine. Let the yeast dissolve and foam in the water for 10 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients.
- Program your bread machine for a 1 1/2 pound basic white bread. I always choose the dark setting for the crust. This bread is excellent for the time delay feature.

ONION BREAD
This recipe originally came from the booklet that accompanied my bread machine. I've modified it a bit and it's my family's favorite bread. We use it for sandwiches, toasted with parmesean cheese for dinner and even just toasted with butter for breakfast!

Steps:
- Measure and add liquid ingredients to the bread pan.
- Measure and add dry ingredients (except yeast) to the bread pan.
- Use your finger to form a well (hole) in the flour where you will pour the yeast. Yeast must NEVER come into contact with a liquid when you are adding ingredients. Measure the yeast and carefully pour into the well.
- Close up bread machine.
- Choose the "basic" setting that most machines have - it's the three hour setting on mine.
- I always use the "light" crust color because the bread comes out quite a bit softer.

SWEET ONION BREAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pan. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, caramelize the onions for about 10 minutes. In an electric mixer with a whip attachment, whip the egg whites until stiff. Switch the whip attachment to a paddle attachment and cream the butter and sugar together. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each yolk. With the machine running add the apple juice and ginger. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper, together. With the machine on low speed, alternate adding the flour 1/3 at a time with the milk. Do not over mix the batter. Fold in the stiff egg whites. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the center of the bread comes out clean. Remove the pan from the oven and invert onto a wire rack. Allow the bread to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Slice a couple of slices from the loaf and place the loaf and the slices on a plate.

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the onions. This will help them caramelize evenly.
- If you don't have time to caramelize the onions, you can use store-bought caramelized onions.
- Use a good quality bread flour. This will help the bread rise properly and give it a chewy texture.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the bread tough.
- Let the bread rise in a warm place. This will help it rise properly.
- Bake the bread until it is golden brown. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
Conclusion:

With a little planning and effort, you can easily make onion bread at home. So next time you're looking for a new bread recipe to try, give onion bread a try. You won't be disappointed!
