Pizza Dough (Bread Machine)

1 cup water and 2 TBL. water
2 TBL. olive oil
2 TBL. sugar
1 tsp. salt
3 cups bread flour
2 tsp. active dry yeast (bread machine yeast)

Put the ingredients in your bread machine as they are listed. BEFORE putting in the yeast make a small well in your dry ingredients and pour the yeast into the well and cover. The yeast MUST NOT touch the wet ingredients during the placement of ingredients so it's best to put it in last and make a well in the flour.

Press dough cycle.

When dough is done, lightly grease a glass bowl (I actually just use a plastic mixing bowl) and place the dough in and cover with plastic wrap.

Pre heat your oven to 200 degrees F and then turn it off once it reaches this temperature. Place the bowl in your oven and let the dough rise for 20 minutes. I put a towel on a cookie sheet and place my bowl on top of this and then put it all in the oven.

Take your dough out and divide into 2 even balls. Roll out balls. Sprinkle corn meal on your pizza pan and THEN place 1 rolled out dough ball on your pizza pan.

Bake at 435 F for 5 minutes. Take out and place your desired toppings on and bake for 15-20 minutes. You be the judge, watch for light browning =)

Repeat with second dough ball.

SUPER EASY RECIPE!

Dinner Rolls (Bread Machine)

1 cup water and 1 TBL water
1 large egg
4 1/2 tsp. olive oil
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup sugar
3 1/4 cup bread flour
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (bread machine yeast)

Place wet ingredients into bread machine first then dry ingredients with the yest being LAST.

Make a small well in your dry ingredients and pour the yeast into the well.

Select dough cycle.

Form dough according to your wishes. I place 3 small balls into each muffin cup. This makes the roll like a pull apart roll and they look nice =) Spray muffin pan with non stick spray if you do this.

Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 2-3 hours or until doubled in size.

Bake in oven at 350 for 8-12 minutes (I do 10 mnts.)

Brush tops with melted butter =)

Homemade Hamburger Buns (Bread Machine)

To give you a brief back ground of my evening while making these, after I had waited the time for them to rise as I was bringing them in I dropped the cookie sheet with the buns (this is so my life =) luckily I remembered someone once told me that to get dough to rise (or in my case "re-rise") heat your oven up to 200 then turn it off and place your bread dough in and it will rise. So I did this and they had re-risen in 10 minutes. A CLUTZ PROOF RECIPE and very very yummy!!
1 1/4 cup slightly warmed milk
1 beaten egg
2 TBL. butter
1/4 cup white sugar
3/4 tsp. salt
3 3/4 cup bread flour
1 1/4 tsp bread machine yeast

Add wet ingredients into your bread machine then dry EXCEPT yeast.

Make a small well with your finger in the flour and pour in your yeast making sure it never touches the wet ingredients.

Place your bread machine on the "dough" cycle.

When done take out and place on a well floured surface. Cut dough in half. Roll out each half so that it is a 1 inch thick circle.

Take an inverted (AKA=upside down cup) and make 3 1/2 inch rounds. Between the two rolled out halves you should make 12 circles/buns.

Place on a GREASED cookie sheet about 2 1/2 inches apart from each other. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm area for 1 hour or until doubled in size. (For me that was one hour and I placed these outside because for me dough rises so great outside!)

Bake at 350 for 9-10 mnts.

For your entertainment, my son later that night had one of the buns stuck to his buns =) I guess at some point he sat on his hamburger lol. It was just too cute =)

Homemade Cinnamon Rolls (Bread Machine)

Bread Machine version and FOOL PROOF =)

ROLLS
3/4 cup water and 2 TBL.
2 TBL. butter, softened
2 1/2 cups bread flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. bread machine yeast

Filling
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 TBL. butter, softened

Glaze
3 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/8 tsp. salt


Put wet ingredients in first, then dry ingredients EXCEPT YEAST.

Form a well with your finger in the flour and pour your yeast into it.

Set your bread machine for the dough cycle.

When done take dough out and place on a lightly floured surface, roll out into a 9 inch square.

Mix your brown sugar and cinnamon. Rub the butter onto the dough surface then sprinkle with the sugar mixture.

Roll up tightly into a log and pinch the edges to form a closed seal (not the ends though)

Cut into 1 inch slices (making 9 rolls) and place in a greased 9x13 dish. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour. I placed mine outside for best results =)

**You can also place these in the fridge overnight (after they rise) but you will need to let them rise again in the morning for about 30 minutes**

Bake at 375 for 16-17 minutes.

Frost or drizzle with glaze =)

This was my first time ever making cinnamon rolls from scratch and my what a great success!! It's fool proof I PROMISE!!

Sweet Hawaiian Bread (Bread Machine)

This is a Bread Machine version of Sweet Hawaiian Bread and it was so yummy!!! I will definitely be making this over and over again!!! I have also noticed a big and better difference in my bread by using actual Bread Flour or "Better For Bread Flour" as opposed to using just regular flour. Just to let you bread makers know!! =)

3/4 cup and 2 TBL. of pineapple juice
1 egg
2 TBL. vegetable oil
3 TBL. honey
3/4 tsp. salt
3 cups Bread Flour
2 TBL. dry milk powder
2 tsp. fast rising yeast (I have Fleischmann's BreadMachine Yeast which is also great and can be used in all "fast rising yeast" recipes =)

Put ingredients into bread machine according to manufactures instructions (mine calls for all wet ingredients in first, then dry ingredients with the Yeast being put in LAST)

Set the machine for "Sweet" or "white" depending on your machine.

Set the crust as "Light"

When done let cool for 15 minutes before cutting =)

Italian Herb and Cheese Bread

Bread Machine Version =) This recipe was SOOOO GOOOD!!! I made the loaf yesterday and my husband and son have already almost finished it only a day later! Makes great sandwiches or serve warm with butter. Better than Subways!!!

1 1/4 cup water
1 1/2 TBL. EVOO
1 tsp. salt
3 1/2 cups bread flour (if you use regular flour just make sure you sift it which you will later in the recipe)
2 tsp. sugar
1 TBL. dried parsley
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tsp. dried onion flakes
1/2 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. active dry yeast

Measure precisely and add liquid ingredients to the bread pan.

In a medium bowl mix together all dry ingredients EXCEPT THE YEAST.

Gently pour the dry ingredients (EXCEPT YEAST) into the bread pan.

Use your finger to form a well (hole) in the flour where you will pour the yeast. Yeats must NEVER come into contact with a liquid when you are adding ingredients. Measure the yeast and carefully pour into the well.

Snap the baking pan into the breadmaker and close lid.

Press "Select" button to choose the French setting.

Choose crust color (I did Light)

Press Start button! =)

About 1o-15 minutes before this was done I lifted the lid and sprinkled some shard cheddar on top and closed the lid. MMMmm
