Lynz,

I've been experimenting......and it worked!:j

My seeded loaf:

As per instructions for basic, but for flour I put in one cup of hovis seeded white, one cup of tesco strong white, two cups of value plain flour and a handful of sesame, pumpkin and sunflower seeds. It was lovely!

I've still got another 1hr and 43mins till mine is ready!!! Hate it when I can smell it and not eat it

You do realise that we're all going to get fat from eatting too much bread :rotfl:

water/milkpowder/yeast as per MR basic recipe:

1 1/2 cups of water
4 tablespoons of milk powder
1 1/4 teasps of yeast

That's to make a two pound loaf.

I got the seeds from Asda........in the bakery section near the flour...around 30p a packet (100g) if I remember rightly. I'm sure that they could be found cheaper somewhere else, but I couldn't resist grabbing them when I was in buying flour.

I find using a combination of value plain flour and strong bread flour (half and half) doesn't seem to compromise the taste but makes each loaf a bit cheaper.

Oh well at that price I wont grumble! Sounds like a great buy!

Hi there breadmaker crew!

I've been reading this thread and have got the BM bug, so now i've succumbed and ordered a MRFB from ebay at a good price £34.98 inc p&p.

Ooh I can't wait! I just love bread and am looking forward to experimenting. Your tips so far sound fab

We've got the chocolate loaf with walnuts cooking as I type (son baking again - he's home ed'ed) so I'll let you know how that goes.

We're also trying Morrisons strong flour versus Hovis last time as its cheaper.

Tomorrow we will be out of ordinary bread again so I think we'll try a seeded. Haven't got seeded flour but we do have some sesame seeds as luckily we do have a Graves near us Undecided yet whether to put on top or scatter within.

It's done! Smells lovely, looks lovely and the bit I picked from the bottom where the blade was tastes yummy!

Wondering whether I really should wait for it to cool and get some butter or if I should eat some now :rotfl:
