Honey Wheat Oatmeal Bread

This recipe comes from Taste of Home's Healthy Cooking magazine. It makes a 2 lb loaf.
Ingredients

1 1/4 c. warm water
1/2 c. honey
2 T. canola oil
1 1/2 t. salt
1 c. quick oats
1 1/2 c. bread flour
1 1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1 pkg (1/4 oz) active yeast (2 1/4 t.)

Directions

Place all ingredients in bread machine in order as suggested by manufacturer. Select basic bread, crust color and size. Bake in machine. Check dough ball after 5 minutes--add water or flour as needed.
have made this bread in my machine several times. It is always yummy. However, my machine pan makes a funny shaped loaf and leaves a big hole where the paddle bakes in the bread. I'm still working on making the dough in my machine and baking the bread in two loaf pans in my oven. Thus far, my loaves haven't been high and fluffy like I want. I'll update this post if I get that part figured out!

Happy Baking!

Cornbread - Sweet & Yummy

I saw this post in a comment on someone else's blog. We made it to go with a yummy Navy Bean soup I made. We all enjoyed the cornbread and the kids were asking for seconds!

I believe this is the Betty Crocker Recipe. It's pretty similar to the Jiffy mix, but made from scratch. It makes one 8 or 9 inch pan or 12 muffins.

1 1/4c cornmeal
1 c. flour
1/2c. sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1/4c butter or margarine, melted
1 c. milk

combine dry ingrediets. add wet ingredients. (I melt the butter in a big measuring cup in the microwave and add the milk and egg to that before adding it all to the dry ingredients). stir until just mixed.
pour into greased pan and bake at 400 F for 20-25 min, probably 15-20 for muffins.

Easy (Dairy Free) White Rolls

I found this recipe when a friend's son, who cannot have dairy, was staying with us. I was looking for a bread recipe to use making little "bread bears". We all enjoyed the bread immensely.
I've made this bread to accompany dinner, use for sandwich rolls, or as buns. It's also great with some butter and honey.
I use my bread machine to make the dough, then shape the buns and bake in my oven.
Ingredients:
1 c. warm water
2 T. sugar
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1 t. salt
3 c. bread flour
2 1/4 t. bread machine yeast
Directions:
Place items in bread machine, in the order directed by your machine's owners manual. Set to dough cycle. (For me, this takes about 1 1/2 hours) Remove and divide into rolls or loaves. Bake 14-18 minutes or until slightly golden.
