Happy Holidays, Darlings
Have you ever wanted garlic bread but there was not one slice in the house? Well, today I cooked chicken cacciatore for dinner, but I did not want to settle for my usual quick and easy garlic bread toast recipe, see below. Therefore, I rolled up my sleeves and started preparing a whole fresh homemade loaf of garlic bread. Keep in mind that the Hamilton Beach bread maker recipe book does not contain a simple garlic bread recipe; so, I adapted a recipe from the Oster bread making machine recipe booklet, which contains a lot more herbs and salt than I used for my own bread.
Although not listed, I added a half teaspoon of dried oregano to my recipe. However, you can omit it or add whatever herb that suits your taste
Evelyn’s Quick and Easy Garlic Bread
This garlic bread recipe is too simple. I came up with it out desperation. The ingredients are few for those you that don’t want to bake or buy regular loaf. It is as simple as making cinnamon toast.
Ingredients:
- 2 thick and regular slices of bread
- 2 tablespoon butter or margarine, soft but not melted
- Enough garlic powder, salt and pepper for taste.
- A sprinkling of grated parmesan, if desired
Direction:
- Pre-heat toaster oven on the toast setting
- Blend butter, garlic powder, salt and pepper with a small fork until smooth
- Spread on bread
- If using the grated parmesan
- Toast bread in toaster oven until rich golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes

Bread Maker Garlic Bread
Ingredients
1.5 pound loaf
- 1 and 1/4 cups hot water
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon margarine or butter, melted
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon wheat gluten
- 3 and 1/4 cups bread flour
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons yeast
Directions
- Microwave water for 3 to 4 minutes, add a quarter cup more to account for evaporation
- Once water is hot measure it down to the above amount needed and add butter to melt it by stirring, until completely mixed in water.
- Add water and butter mixture ingredients to the bread pan.
- Add the rest of ingredients in order list above to the bread pan.
- Make a well in the flour with your finger and the yeast.
- Lock the bread pan into the bread maker and close the lid.
- Select the Basic setting, which is first setting on the Hamilton Beach bread maker
- Select your choice crust color from light, medium or dark crust.
- Press start button and leave the brad maker alone to do its thing.
- For best result, once the bread is done and cooking on a rack, brush it with an egg wash coating: one egg white stirred together with one tablespoon of water.
Note: I discovered that add wheat gluten to my bread recipes result in well-formed store bought soft and tasty like bread. Although, bread flour contains wheat gluten, the amount is not high enough to help the bread texture and bake well.
Enjoy!
