Fabulous Homemade Bread in a Food Processor

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fabulous Homemade Bread in a Food Processor.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious bread-making journey, grab a large bowl and pour in some warm water, aiming for a cozy temperature between 100 to 110 degrees F.

2. Step 2

   Whisk in four teaspoons of bread flour along with the yeast and a sprinkle of white sugar until everything is well blended and the sugar has dissolved.

3. Step 3

   Now, let this mixture sit for about five minutes; you’ll notice the yeast starting to bubble and come to life, which is a good sign! Next, let’s move to the food processor.

4. Step 4

   Fit it with the dough blade and combine three and a half cups of bread flour, oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and salt.

5. Step 5

   Start the processor and gradually pour in your bubbly yeast mixture.

6. Step 6

   In about a minute, you’ll see a firm dough ball forming that pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

7. Step 7

   Keep the processor running for another 30 seconds to give your dough a nice knead.

8. Step 8

   Once your dough is ready, transfer it to a lightly oiled bowl, making sure to turn it so that all sides are coated.

9. Step 9

   Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size—this should take around an hour.

10. Step 10

    After the dough has risen beautifully, it’s time to punch it down gently to release some of that air.

11. Step 11

    Divide the dough in half and shape each piece into a loaf, pinching the seams and ends to seal them up nicely.

12. Step 12

    Now, grease two 4x8-inch loaf pans and place your loaves seam-side down inside.

13. Step 13

    Allow them to rise again until they’re about an inch above the top of the pans, which will take another hour.

14. Step 14

    While your loaves are rising, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

15. Step 15

    When the time is right, pop those loaves into the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the tops turn a lovely golden brown.

16. Step 16

    Once they’re done baking, let the bread cool in the pans for about 10 minutes.

17. Step 17

    Then, transfer them to cooling racks to cool completely.

18. Step 18

    The aroma of freshly baked bread will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist a slice! Enjoy the fruits of your labor and savor every bite of your homemade bread.
