The book is based on a ONE POUND breadmaker, whereas my bread machine makes a 1.5 to 2 lb loaf. Her book called for simply 'doubling' the recipe given to make a two pound loaf. Sounds easy enough right ? I followed the recipe (doubling the amounts), and here is the final product :
It looks delish and all, but it is very dense and way too many sesame. A friend of mine just suggested making the 1 lb loaf recipe and put it in my machine that way and run it through the cycle. Since I am new to this , I thought I HAD to fit the recipe.. 'to fit the machine'., thus the final product.
On an upward note, my 84 year old father in law graciously bestowed this wonderful hand crafted bread slicer to me :) I got the instructions of how to make the slicer off of the internet.
My delicious low carb sesame sliced bread ready to be eaten !!
I think next time I will stick with the one pound sesame recipe, then put it in the bread machine (even though the machine is for 1.5 to a two pound loaf.)
For breakfast today, I had slices of bacon on wheat toast with lettuce and tomato.

The bread looks delicious!
Your father in law is very talented. Was it hard to make the bread slicer?
iT WAS Not hard. The measurements were given, and its just three pieces of wood put together, with a slot for the knife to go through. If I get a chance, I'll go on my other computer to get the link for the bread slicer instructions. :)
Hi,
The bread does look good. I kinda like my bread a bit dense ;) I would think it would be good with a thick slice of cheese. What are you having it with?
I used to have that book but gave it to a friend in more need than me. Maybe I should buy another copy? heheh Do you think this recipe could be made with a conventional oven instead of the bread maker??
Hi Erika, I do not know much about making bread in an 'oven', lol, that's why I let the bread machine do all of the work for me !
Yes, I am slicing the bread thin, but today, the sesame is 'not so strong' tasting. lol. Its my first try with 'seeds' in a bread recipe.
Check for my Sunday blog to find out what I ate today :)
