We love bread

One of my favorite things is my  Zojirushi bread Machine.  DH got it for me for Christmas & we thought I'd use it if I were busy & didn't have time to let it rise or gotta go somewhere & bread was ready to bake.  There are many things in life that do interfere when you make bread from scratch.  Imagine our surprise that now it's something I use a LOT!  I love it!

In Houston it is hot so many months.  When the fall & winter months are here I do bake an awful lot & love to try new recipes.  Now however, I don't want to heat up the oven for bread.  This wonderful machine makes it so nice.  I just put the ingredients in, set the timer & voila in the morning we wake to the smell of fresh bread... yum.  The machine does put off some heat, but that heat dissipates easily in the early morn.

Thought I'd share a few photos of my bread that I made this week.

Cheddar Cheese Bread

I got this recipe from King Arthur Flour & yes it's really is yellow looking & GOOD.  I have been having it with ham, grilled in my cast iron skillet for lunches, no need to add any extra cheese.  There is absolutely nothing healthy about this bread, but it IS good.

Our daily sandwich bread is 75% whole wheat (yes, that I grind in my Nutrimill Grinder).  It's very good & healthy too.  I will eventually make it 100% whole wheat but this works great in my Zo bread machine, so for now it's good enough.

Daily Bread

Lastly today I made some very healthy Hi-Fiber English Muffins.  These are for breakfast - Yum.

English Muffins

Not too bad looking for a first attempt, I think.
