  • 25 grams Free range egg lightly whisked
  • 20 grams Unsalted butter

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients into the bread pan of Automatic bread maker except for butter.

Mix & Bake in bread maker

  • If you would like the bread to mix and bake in the bread maker, then select the basic setting of your bread maker. Once the bread maker has kneaded the ingredients into a formed dough, add in the butter and allow the cycle to be complete.

Mix in bread maker only. Baking in specialized toast tin.

  • Select the basic dough setting that does not allow baking time. Once bread maker has kneaded the ingredients into a formed dough, then add the butter and allow the cycle to be complete.
  • Once the cycle is complete, remove the dough onto a floured surface. The dough maybe slightly sticky due to its high liquid content. Divide the dough in two halves. Roll the dough until round. Rest for 10 minute.
  • Using a rolling pin, Roll the dough into a long rectangle. Fold the two long sides of the dough inwards towards mid line. Then roll the dough from bottom up to form a log.
  • Repeat the above step with the other portion of dough. Place both rolls of dough into the bread tin you are using to bake.
  • Let the bread proof and rise until double the size. (filling around 80% of the container)
  • Preheat the oven to 180C with Fan. or 200C top and bottom.
  • Bake bread loaf for 42 minutes.
  • Once baked, remove from oven. Turn bread out onto cooling rack immediately. Cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Note: The bread tin I use for this recipe measures 20cm x 11cm x 10cm and comes with a lid. Lids are optional. It just allows the end product to have that squared sandwich bread look.
