Cheating the baker

The bread maker is the best invention in the world. It allows people to be something they’re not with minimal effort, reaping the benefits of skills they don’t posses. It is the ultimate honest lie; I really did make this bread, but I didn’t.

I found my bread maker. It was on top of the cabinets where I keep all my appliances, so the hunt didn’t take long. Last night, I put in water, flour, sugar, salt, dry milk, butter, and yeast in my bread maker, I pushed a button, and 3 hours later, I got a loaf of bread.

It was so incredibly easy, I did it again this morning. I even got creative and added minced onion (dry) and garlic powder to it. Now I have the best bread on the planet for making toast.

And my home smells like domestic.

I think in a bit I will attempt a peanut butter bread recipe I foung in Bread Electric, a book full of bread maker recipes. If that one is successful, I am going to attempt the same recipe with chocolate added to it. It would be like a peanut butter cup, only something I could put raspberry jam on. Mmmmmm…. candy bread.

Dear Readers,

What other wacky breads should I try? What wacky breads have YOU tried? What is the best bread out ther and why? ANd how else can I cheat at being domestic?
