Ricotta Bread For Bread Machines 1 Pound Loaf

---

A favorite i have been making for years. This isn't a very tall loaf and yes - the amount of flour is correct. Note: (these days, most bread machines have much bigger pans, so if you have a larger capacity machine, you may instead wish to only mix the dough in the machine,let it rise, then bake the bread itself in a loaf pan (at 350 f for perhaps 30 minutes is a guess). this can still be baked in a larger capacity machine, it will just have an odd shape.

Steps

After about 5 minutes , take a peek inside your machine to see if your dough is forming up a ball- if it is too wet , add up to 3 tbsp additional flour , a spoonful at a time , if too dry , add a little water.
