Method
1. Remove the bread pan from the breadmaker. Attach the kneading blade on the shaft of the bread
pan. Place the ingredients into the bread pan, in the order listed.
2. Place the bread pan into the breadmaker; close the lid.
3. Select Dough Program. (Timer cannot be used with the Dough Program.) Press START.
4. When the beeper sounds 8 times, press STOP. Remove the dough from the bread pan. Place onto
a slightly floured surface. Divide into 2 parts. Divide each half into 5 pieces. Shape each piece into
a smooth ball; roll each ball to a 5-inch circle. Cover; let rise 30 minutes.
5. Place 5 circles on a large cooling rack. Place cooling rack on oven rack. Bake at 500°F for 5 min-
utes until puffed and tops just begin to brown.
6. Remove from oven and from hot rack; cool. Cut circles in half; fill. Repeat items 5 and 6 with
remaining circles.
Tip: The rolling and baking instructions should be carefully followed to be sure the bread bakes with
the “pocket.”
