The Method

Fit the kneading paddle into the bread pan. 

Add the ingredients to the bread pan in order: liquids first (water, milk, oil), sugar and salt, then flour. Always add the yeast last to ensure it's separated from the liquid and salt. This is especially important when using the delay timer.  

Place the bread pan into Clever Bake and lock it into position. Close the lid. 

Press MENU to scroll through the available programs and select Program 1 – Basic Bread. Press the LOAF SIZE button to choose your loaf size, then press the CRUST button to select Light, Medium or Dark. Press START to begin. 

When the program has finished, carefully remove the bread pan using oven gloves and turn out the loaf. Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
