Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups Water
- 0.25 cups Orange juice
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Amaranth flour
- 0.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons Dry milk powder
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
Instructions
Add the water, orange juice, olive oil, and honey to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer (usually liquids first).
Sprinkle the salt and orange zest evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Add the all-purpose flour, amaranth flour, and whole wheat flour to the pan. Make sure to evenly distribute the flour over the surface of the liquid ingredients.
Sprinkle the dry milk powder over the flour.
Make a small well in the top center of the dry ingredients with your finger or a spoon, but do not let it reach the liquid layer. Add the instant yeast into this well.
Place the bread pan into the bread machine and select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle, with a crust setting of your choice (light, medium, or dark).
Press 'Start' to initiate the bread-making process and let the machine work its magic.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts and let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Gently remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
