Basic White Bread - Cuisinart FP16DCU Manual

Basic White Bread

Makes 1 large or 2 small loaves
700g strong white fl our
1 tsp easy blend dried yeast
1 ½ tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
425ml hand hot water
• Insert the dough blade into the large work bowl and add the fl our, yeast, salt and sugar
replace the lid and process for a few seconds to combine. Remove the small pusher
and with the processor running, pour the water through the small feed tube. Once the
dough starts to clean the inside of the work bowl and forms a ball, continue to process
for 30-60 seconds to knead it.
• Stop the appliance and test the dough to ensure it is properly kneaded. If it feels hard,
lumpy or uneven, continue processing until it feels uniformly soft and pliable.
• Turn dough out onto work surface, work into a ball, lightly with hands and place into
a large polythene bag and leave in a warm place for approximately 1 ½ hours or until
doubled in size.
• Remove from the bag, knock back and place in 2x 450g well greased loaf tins or 1x 900g
well greased loaf tin and stand in a warm place until well risen, for approximately 50
minutes.
• Place in a preheated oven, 220°C/425°F, Gas Mark 7 and bake for approximately 30-40
minutes, 35-45 minutes for a large tin, or until golden brown. The loaf should sound
hollow when removed from the tin and tapped on the bottom.
• Remove from oven and turn onto a wire rack to cool.
