Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 cup water 3 tablespoons margarine 2 cups bread flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1 tablespoon sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons instant yeast Topping 1 egg -- beaten with... 1/4 cup water 1/3 cup sesame seeds Place all of the ingredients in your machines fully assembled pan (with the exception of those ingredients listed under "add at beep"). Select the dough or manual cycle and press start. About 10 minutes after your machine has started kneading the dough you need to open the lid and check the consistency of the dough. The dough should be starting to form a smooth round ball. When you touch the dough with your finger it should be slightly tacky to the touch however no dough should remain on your finger when you pull it away. If you dough it too dry add 1 tbsp. of water at a time (allowing the machine to knead for a minutes or so between additions) until the dough is the proper consistency. If the dough is too wet add 1 tbsp. of flour at a time (allowing the machine to knead for a minute or so between additions) until the dough is the proper consistency. These types of adjustments are not unusual and don't mean there is something wrong with the recipe. If this recipe has "add at beep" ingredients you need to either turn on the add ingredients beep function, choose your machines cycle that has an add ingredients beep or if your machine has neither of these you need to add these ingredients during the last 10 minutes of your machines final kneading cycle. After the machine has beeped to indicate the bread is done, remove the dough, punch it down to release the gas, and divide into 6 equal pieces. Form into balls, cover, and let rest for 45 minutes. Roll the balls out on a floured surface until they are about 10 inches across; they will be very thin at this point. Transfer them to an ungreased baking sheet, brush with the egg mixture, and sprinkle each one with 2 teaspoons of sesame seeds. Prick the bread with a fork at least a half dozen times. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 6 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly puffy. Cool completely before storing. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 352 Calories; 12g Fat (29.0% calories from fat); 11g Protein; 52g Carbohydrate; 4g Dietary Fiber; 31mg Cholesterol; 614mg Sodium.
