Shaping For shaping into 9” x 5” x 3” (23 x 13 x 8cm) loaves,
follow these directions:
1. Divide dough as stated in recipe. Roll each section into a 14” x 7”
(35 x rectangle on a lightly floured board. A rolling pin works

well and forces out any air bubbles. (Fig. 1)
2. Beginning with the smaller side, roll up jelly-roll style, sealing well
with pressure from the heel of the hand. (Fig. 2)
3. Pinch edges and ends to seal. (Fig. 3)
4. Place seam-side down in a well-greased 9” x 5” x 3” (23 X X
8cm) loaf pan.
Test for “double in size”
Press the tips of two fingers lightly
inch into the dough. If the impressions remain, it has
doubled. (Fig. 4)

BAKING PAN MATERIALS
Fig. 4
Use dull metal pans when possible. Shiny pans require longer baking time. When
using glass baking pans, reduce temperature called for in recipe 25°F (15%).
Baking
Always preheat oven to desired temperature. Make sure there is a mini-
mum of two inches (5cm) for heat circulation between pans and between pans and
oven sides.
SECRETS TO SUCCESSFUL DOUGHMAKING
Select Highest Speed

When doughmaking, ALWAYS dial to highest speed as
Use Bowl Use (4L) Mixer Bowl when preparing yeast
doughs. Also, use your Doughmaker for mixing meat loaves, quick breads such as
muffins, corn bread, using either your 1 S-quart
or (4L) mixer bowl,
depending on quantity.
Test for Doneness
Bread is done if the loaf sounds hollow when tapped lightly,
is golden brown and well rounded. Remove from pan and immediately cool on
wire rack.
High Altitudes
High altitudes make breads rise faster and higher. In altitudes of
5,000 feet (1,520 meters) or above, use 1 package active dry yeast when two are
called for. In recipes calling for 1 package, test for double in size in second rising and
bake even though it may not be quite doubled.
