HERB BREAD FOR BREAD MACHINE
This herb bread is almost exactly like the bread they serve at Macaroni Grill®. This bread is best warm or toasted. We serve it with soups or even just toasted for breakfast spread with cream cheese instead of butter.

APRICOT BREAD
This is my most asked-for recipe. I've used it for many years, which is obvious from my recipe card that's yellowed and full of stains. The fruity appearance and taste of this easy-to-make bread blend beautifully with our warm Florida sunshine. It's always a hit whenever I serve it.

Steps:
- Heat cold milk for 30 seconds in the microwave; hold eggs under tap water for a minute to warm.
- Add ingredients according to your manufacturer's directions.
- Set Cycle: Sweet, Size, 2lb.
- After about 5 minutes, check your dough: Add a tablespoon of water if too dry, or a tablespoon of flour if too wet, until dough is smooth.
- Alternatively, set cycle to dough, take dough out and shape as desired.
- I like to divide the dough in half, then divide each half into three, roll into ropes and braid, joining the dough ends together to create a braided circle.
- Leave to rise until doubled, bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
RAISIN BREAD - BREAD MACHINE
I like store bought cinnamon raisin bread for breakfast, so I started making this to save some dough. Get it, dough? Hahaha...heh. 1.5 lb loaf, from my fave bread book. I think I will add more cinnamon in the future, though this bread is OMG delicious when you spread butter on top and sprinkle a mixture of cinnamon sugar on top, then microwave it for 10-30 seconds. Mmm calories taste so good!

Steps:
- Place ingredients into bread pan in the order suggested by your bread machine manufacturer. I put the raisins in after the beep or after the first knead to avoid the bread machine going all HULK SMASH! on them, but it is up to you.
- Oh yeah, bake on white.

AMISH BREAD FOR THE BREAD MACHINE
This bread is very light and airy. It is due to the fact the bread is put through the rising cycles twice.

Tips:
- Use ripe apricots: Using ripe apricots will give your bread a more intense apricot flavor. If you don't have ripe apricots, you can use dried apricots, but be sure to soak them in hot water for 15 minutes before using.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the bread tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together and then stop.
- Let the bread rise in a warm place: This will help the bread to rise properly and give it a light and airy texture.
- Bake the bread until it is golden brown: Insert a toothpick into the center of the bread. If it comes out clean, the bread is done.
- Let the bread cool before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
