the measurements were in cups so had to convert them to grams, here goes...

 

ingredients group 1

 

150g melted butter

3 medium eggs, beaten (i just used 3 of our girls eggs as they came)

2 tsp lemon juice

 

ingredients group 2

 

234g plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

226g granulated sugar (i think that's what gives a gorgeous chewy crust!)

 

mix group 1 together in a seperate bowl

sieve group 2 together in seperate bowl

combine groups 1 and 2 until mixed

pour mixture into breadpan

 

set the MR fastbake to setting 4

 

preferably wait 2 days til perfection

i'll have to have a go at your lemon drizzle cake, sounds yum but i need to get some lemons and a proper cake tin!

[The Dogmother]

It's really easy Poet. Helps if you get some cake tin liners - the greaseproof ones. Much easier to get it out then. Lakeland do brill ones, but you can get them from most kitchen/cooking stores.

Why do cakes taste better 2 days after you make them!?

I cant say I have ever had a cake last that long

I was in a bargain style shop today & saw a MR fastbake 48300 for £25- it's a factory reconditioned one.

I have no idea how good it is, but the fact that it can make pasta & jam & cake swung it for me.

Here it is- there is a large white loaf cooking in it at the mo

 

 

The box was all battered but the lady in the shop said that they will give me a 3 month guarantee with it, & if it's no good I can take it back for a refund.

 

I also got this glassware from Home & Bargains- the sealing jar cost 99p ( there was only one left) and all the others were £1.99 each.It's all Luminarc.

I have no excuse now not to do more home baking

OOoo, get you Gadget Girl

Poet you have to try Claret's lemon drizzle cake - very easy and so delicious! Thanks for the madeira cake recipe - funnily enough, whilst eating the lemon drizzle cake, OH asked why I'd never done a madeira cake (didn't even know he knew what one was!) Will give it a go now

[The Dogmother]

How long have you been married?

[Jules.]

OOoo, get you Gadget Girl

Tee Hee

I need some shelves to go underneath my wall cupboards, I have no space to put anything.

I have a hand blender & a proper blender that are out of shot!

[Snowy]

How long have you been married?

 

Too long Claret, too long!

What a bargain on the MR fastbake

Now you've got me wanting one!!! I've been trying to persuade DH for ages - he keeps saying "We don't need one, I make great bread" but never actually gets round to doing it

 

Maybe now they're down to sensible prices (used to cost 200-300 quid when they first came out!!) and my favourite supermarket bread is so expensive, I can persuade him. Either that or I'll just buy one anyway! Plus I'd be able to make spelt bread like Lesley, as I'm supposed to be going on a wheat-free diet for a while to lose weight.

 

Reading the comments about recipes being too cakey, I wonder if the machine and its booklet are produced primarily for the US market? I've heard their bread is very sweet.

[Jules.]

Hmm

Yes, American bread is very sweet, completely different to ours.

[Eyren]

Well, I've gone and bought one! Had to try a couple of shops in Cambridge to get the model I wanted at a good price, but I eventually got it at Comet - the Panasonic SD-255 for £89.99. I'm really glad I went for the more expensive model, as the cheaper one doesn't have the rye/spelt mode

 

Plus, DH is really keen on my latest idea - to knock the kitchen and hall together to make a bigger kitchen :D

[The Dogmother]

Sounds like a double whammy there then Eyren.

[Eyren]

Yep, very productive day!

[Jules.]

I have to same one as Clare

 

I have had it over a year and use it most days. I also use it for pizza dough and naan bread. The naan bread is lovely.

mine didn't come with a naan recipe- could you post it, please?

[Eyren]

I was wondering that too, Jules! It appears the Panasonic SD-253 came with a naan recipe in its booklet but it's not in the one for the 255. I googled and eventually found a recipe on the BBC website:

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/database/naanbreads_77147.shtml

 

I suppose since you're only using the machine to make the dough, any naan recipe would work - but it would be nice to know!

[The Dogmother]

That sounds lovely, I've never used it for Naan bread - might have to give it a try. Thanks Debs.

reading this with interest............up until 18 months I had a breadmaker (it broke). I only used it occasionally so didn't bother to replace it. I've always enjoyed making bread by hand - it always takes me back to my childhood when I used to help my Dad bake bread :D

 

I have been contemplating wether or not to get a breadmaker again, if only for the convenience of waking to fresh bread..............i shall continue to ponder on this

 

the maderia cake sounds yummy my fav cake

[Jules.]

Here's a photo of my first loaf. My breadmaker makes a traditional loaf, like in the bakers, longer than it is tall. .

[Eyren]

That looks lovely, Jules! What did it taste like?

 

Yesterday I made my first one, following the recipe for standard white bread. I used 100% organic white flour (non-branded, from my local healthfood cooperative), Doves Farm quick yeast, unsalted butter, and a little less salt and sugar than the recipe booklet suggested. It was lovely and light in texture - a little too light for my taste, but then I mostly eat wholemeal seeded bread these days. I can understand why, if you put more sugar in it, people might think it was a bit cake-like!

 

Today's experiment is half wholemeal seeded spelt bread, inspired by Carl's recipe - I don't need to do extra kneading 'cos my machine has a separate setting for these heavier breads

Thank you

it tasted a little cakey- the recipe called for 3 tbsp of sugar, so I will try today with half that amount, & I'll also put a little less salt in.
