Equipment

  • 1 breadmaker for a two pound loaf
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 pastry brush to brush bread with butter after baking
  • 1 electric knife preferred, or a sharp bread knife to cut bread

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup lukewarm water
  • 3 tbsp. honey or brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 3 tbsp. dried buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp. ranch powdered salad dressing mix
  • 3 1/2 cups bread flour NOT all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast
  • 2 tsp. vital wheat gluten

Instructions
 

  • Layer ingredients in bread canister in order given.
  • Select wheat bread cycle.
  • After baking, allow bread to rest in breadmaker 15 minutes before removing.
  • Brush top and sides of read with butter to prevent crust from hardening.
  • Allow bread to rest 15 more minutes before cutting down into slices.
  • Makes a two-pound loaf, or about 10 large slices.

Notes

NOTE: I found this bread did better at the longer wheat bread cycle rather than a shorter cycle.
 
NOTE: Homemade bread has no preservatives so it needs to be refrigerated after 2 days.
 
NOTE: all-purpose flour does not contain the necessary gluten to bond the ingredients together as well as bread flour. The bread may turn out crumbly. For best results use bread flour.
 
NOTE: I recommend using Fleischmann's yeast or bread machine yeast in any yeast bread recipe. Red Star yeast just doesn't work as well.
