Ingredients

• 1 cup Water
• 0.25 cup Orange juice
• 1 tablespoon Orange zest
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Millet flour
• 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Instant yeast

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing your breadmaker. Make sure the pan is securely in place, and the paddle is properly attached.

Step 2

Add the ingredients to the breadmaker in the following order: water, orange juice, orange zest, olive oil, and honey.

Step 3

Sprinkle the salt around the edges of the pan to keep it separate from the yeast.

Step 4

Add the all-purpose flour, millet flour, and whole wheat flour in layers, ensuring an even coverage over the liquid.

Step 5

Create a small well in the center of the flour mixture and add the instant yeast. Be careful not to let the yeast touch any liquid.

Step 6

Select the ‘Basic’ or ‘Whole Wheat’ cycle on your breadmaker. Choose a 1 1/2 lb loaf size and set the crust to your preferred darkness (medium crust is recommended).

Step 7

Start the breadmaker and allow it to mix, knead, rise, and bake the dough. This should take approximately 3 hours, depending on your machine.

Step 8

Once the breadmaking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Turn the loaf out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing. This helps preserve the bread’s texture and prevents crumbling.

Step 10

Serve as a delightful accompaniment to breakfast spreads or enjoy it toasted with butter. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
