Breads & Muffins

There are two recipes I make most often in my bread machine. The first is a Honey Wheat. This Garden Herb Bread is the other.

I found this Garden Herb Bread in the recipe book (Electric Bread) that came with my bread machine. It is a delicious and fragrant. Just smelling it while it is baking is worth the time alone! It makes great sandwiches or accompaniment to soup. I think it would also make great croutons, but I haven’t gotten around to trying that yet.

• 1 tsp thyme
• 1/2 tsp basil
• 2 tsp active dry yeast (use 1 tsp yeast if using fast rise)

1. Place the ingredients into your bread machine according to the manufacturer’s directions.
2. All herbs used should be dried and flaked, not ground.

I found this recipe in the book (Electric Bread) that came with my bread machine. It is a good light wheat bread with almost no wheat taste.

My favorite way to eat it is toasted and then spread with honey butter (see recipe at the end). So delicious!

I believe I found this recipe for golden sweet cornbread on allrecipes.com while looking for a good basic sweet cornbread. This is my favorite one!

When I make it, I bake it in a glass 13×9 dish for about 15 minutes. I like it better that way.
