NEW from Reader Request → Bread Machine Wild Rice Bread

Published 3 months ago • 1 min read

Dear Friends,

When one of my readers asked for a soft, sandwich loaf with wild rice, I headed to the kitchen with a mission. The result is this hearty yet soft loaf with chewy bits of wild rice, nutty whole wheat, a touch of honey, and a pinch of thyme. Let your bread machine do the kneading, then bake in your oven to golden perfection.

If you’ve got leftover cooked wild rice in the fridge, this recipe is a great way to use it. And if you brush slices of this loaf with browned butter …well, let’s just say it’s worth the indulgence.

On a personal note, my husband and I just returned from what we call “The Sibling Tour.” We drove (okay, he did most of the driving) from Texas to Indiana, North Carolina, and Alabama in just eight days—whew! Our relatives cooked and fed us extravagantly with things like homemade noodles with beef, outdoor-oven pizza (with bread-machine dough 😉), blueberry sourdough scones, and lasagna to name a few. We even squeezed in a foodie tour as we passed through Memphis on the way home. What a treat!!

Happy Baking,

Paula

Bread Machine Pita Bread and Pockets

Have you ever tasted something fresh for the first time and wondered why you spent years settling for the packaged version? That was me the day I walked into a Middle Eastern grocery store and bought a bag of warm pita bread. The package was still steamy, and I suddenly understood what pita was supposed to be. Store-bought pita can’t hold a candle to the homemade kind. My brand-new recipe for Bread Machine Pita Bread (with an optional oatmeal twist!) is finally live. Your bread machine...

homemade cream of mushroom soup substitute

Whether you are making a gift list for yourself or someone else, here are two things I think every baker or cook should have and use in their kitchen. DIGITAL SCALE: The fastest way to cook and bake more consistently—especially with flour. Weighing in grams removes guesswork and keeps recipes repeatable. Look for a scale with a tare button, 1-gram (or 0.1-oz) resolution, and an easy-to-read display. Set your mixing bowl on the scale and start dumping--no measuring cups required. I like the...

Sliced 50/50 whole wheat French bread on a cutting board, with butter on the side.

Have you tried my popular bread machine recipe, "Bread Machine French Bread"? It may not be authentic French bread, but it's an easy and delicious recipe for beginners that usually turns out great. Recently, one of my readers requested a whole wheat version. It's not quite as "fool-proof" because whole wheat has a different personality and needs a little extra care. When you try this recipe keep these tips in mind. A Few Handy Tips for Baking with Whole Wheat Flour White vs. Red. White whole...
