This savory Bread Machine recipe with Onion and Olive is artisan bread made right in your bread maker with staples like canned, sliced black olives, dehydrated onions, dried thyme and all-purpose flour.
(Makes a 1b loaf)Add wet ingredients first. This is critical!
Add dry ingredient next (in sequence given). When adding salt, pour it around the outer edge of mixture, away from yeast. When adding sugar, pour it around the other outer edge of mixture, away from yeast (opposite the salt)
Yeast should be added last. Dig a small crater in the middle of the flour, away from the salt, sugar and water. *Never let the yeast come in contact with the liquid.
Put the bread pan in the bread machine
Set bread machine on most appropriate setting - it's usually "normal mode" setting (the same setting I'd use to make a regular loaf of white bread , or "basic mode". If you have the option, choose size (1 lb), then crust color (light is easiest to cut), then press START
Add the chopped black olives at the fruit signal.
** It is really important that you follow your manufacturer's operating instructions for your bread machine when attempting to make any bread.Â
