Can you bake bread? Most likely, many housewives will answer this question negatively, because in modern people there is not much time to mess with complicated recipes. But if you have such a wonderful kitchen equipment in your household as a bread machine or multicooker, then preparing a fragrant loaf will be very simple.
First, tell you how to cook bread in a slow cooker. Let's make the dough. To do this, heat a glass of water so that it acquires a temperature of 35-40 degrees. Pour a bag of yeast, ten grams of salt and forty grams of granulated sugar into this water. All is well stirred until dissolved. Now add the oil - 60 grams, you can use olive or any other vegetable. It remains to add flour to the dough, pour it in gradually, each time stirring well. The dough should stop sticking to your hands, but not get too cool. As a rule, about 500 - 600 grams of flour are consumed per batch.
Put the prepared dough into a large pan and cover it with a clean towel or cling film. After the first rise, we knead the dough and again set for proofing. When the dough rises again, it is once again well kneaded and placed in the bowl of the multicooker, which should be lightly greased with vegetable oil.
We leave the bread preparation for lifting for about half an hour, and then turn on the “Baking” mode and bake the bread in a slow cooker, setting the time to one hour. After the timer signal, you need to carefully remove the bread, turn it on the other side and turn on the same mode again for half an hour. So our loaf is ready - magnificent, fragrant, porous.
And here's how to make sweet butter bread in a slow cooker. In a glass of heated milk (you can use kefir, fermented baked milk, whey) we breed a bag of yeast. Beat three eggs separately with half a teaspoon of salt, vanilla (1 bag) and sugar (seven tablespoons). Now we mix milk with yeast, the egg mixture and sunflower oil (seven tablespoons) in a bowl and begin to add flour to this liquid mass, which will take about five glasses.
We put the dough for proofing, and meanwhile, we sort through my raisins. Then pour dried fruit with boiling water, let it swell. We drain the water and dry the raisins, laying it on a paper towel.
Now grease the cutting board with vegetable oil, pour raisins on it and lay out the dough that has come up. Gently mix the dried fruits into the dough and form a ball out of it.
We spread the dough into the greased multicooker bowl and turn on the device in the “Preheat” mode for 15 minutes. Then turn off the slow cooker and leave the dough to rise for another half hour.
We bake our butter bread in a multicooker in the “Baking” mode for an hour on one side and another 40 minutes after turning. We take out the finished bread from the bowl and serve for breakfast with butter.
It’s even easier to make bread with such a wonderful appliance as a bread machine. In this case, you don’t even have to knead the dough, the “smart” machine will do everything itself. There are a variety of bread recipes in a bread machine. For example, here's how to make Milk Bread. Pour one and a half teaspoons of dried yeast into the bottom of the appliance bowl, sift half a kilo of flour, add one and a half teaspoons of salt and one and a half tablespoons of sugar, topped with eighty grams of butter. Lastly, pour three hundred and fifty milliliters of milk. Bake bread in the main mode, in the finished form the loaf will weigh about seven hundred grams.
