    hi all

    As u all know im new to the bread machine but as im dieting i need a lowfat recipe im on ww and ive pointed the normal white bread recipe and its over 30 pts !! thats very high
    looked on web but i still carnt seem to find one
    any help peeps x
  • How about switching the butter to oil in the recipe.
  • You can leave the fat out; the bread won't keep as well, though.

    Carbohydrate also has calories :rolleyes: so if you want to reduce your calorie intake, you may just have to eat less bread :D

    There's not much in it calorie-wise ;)

    Hi there

    i make my bread by hand.. but do:-

    300ml warm water
    pinch of sugar
    14g fresh yeast
    500g bread flour
    3tsp salt

    There is no need for milk/milk powder unless you like a softer crust -we like really crusty -and using just water does that
    and you can omit the fat -which is mainly for keeping it fresh longer -but if you slice it n freeze in 2s then its not needed either

    I think when i weighed 2 (not so thin)slices of mine the other day on WW scales it was 3.5 ww points -not that im wwing anymore -now doing it Old Style.....

    hope it helps
    -6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.5

    thanks guys im jst gonna hve to limit myself to 2 slices a day i think
  • I have tried it a couple of times, but tend to not use it tbh, I find the bread is quite stodgy and very heavy, its ok if your in a hurry and just need bread for toasting, but for sarnies I just think its too heavey. JMO;)
    Trying to be frugal and sensible with my pennies.
  • I tend to use this programme the most and its brill, very good loaf.
