EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Using bread flour in your mix will result in breads with the highest volume. Bread flours are blends of special wheat that are higher in gluten forming protein than regular flour. That extra gluten gives more structure and higher volume to the bread.

Blend the flour mixture really well, this will ensure that each loaf bakes up just as nice and flavorable as the next. If you don't have a bowl large enough for mixing use an extra large food storage bag.

There is no such list. You can even eat sugar! However, you need to work with your doctor to figrue out exactly how many carbohydrates you should eat at each meal and for snacks. Some people try to drastically limit their carbohydrates, but this is difficult and generally not necessary. If you do not understand the balancing act between diabetes-food-medicine, then you need to work with your doctor more closely and a nutritionist. If you are seeing a general practitioner, it may be worth it to see a specialist (endocrinologist) a few times.

I love wheat bread so this recipe sounds delicious, cannot wait to try to make it. Only one question, does it have to be made in a bread machine or can you make it in the oven as well?

I like this receipe because its premixed. I would like to know the nutrition value. I have to watch my fats and salt intake. Can I substitute light canola or olive oil in place of butter? Sylvia
