Robyn on the Farm’s Easy Bread Machine Dough Cycle French Bread Recipe:
1 1/4 c warm water
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp yeast
2 tsp salt
3 c all purpose flour
Put ingredients in bread machine bread pan in the order listed. Choose the dough cycle setting on your bread machine. It should be about 1.5 hours long. Check your ball of dough a few minutes into the dough cycle to be sure that the dough isn’t too wet/sticky (add about 1/4 cup more flour if it is sticking to pan and paddles) or too dry (add a Tbsp more water) until the ball of dough looks like mine in the video. After the dough setting is complete, punch down and turn out dough. Shape into a long French bread loaf shape. Place on oiled baking pan. Let rise 20 minutes. Mix one egg and 1 tsp water to make an egg wash. Paint onto risen dough, taking care not to press too hard and make it collapse. Cut/score slits for vents in the top of the loaf and bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes, or until it is the desired golden color. Enjoy your beautiful loaf of homemade French bread!

I've made French bread in the bread machine for years. It turns out great in the round Dak machine, but I want to try it on the dough cycle. I have the perforated French bread form/pan but I'm just lazy. You make it look really easy. Walmart sells the French and Italian long loaves–what is the difference in ingredients?
Hey kiddo, I’ll be trying that and I’m in West Virginia🍞
Love it. Will make smalle friend bread loaf for individual french bread pizza . Thank you!
I made this today…can’t wait to try it…it’ll be for dinner & I have dinner guests coming
I made this today, coated with sesame seeds. Amazingly delicious.
This is sooo delicious. I can’t believe I was able to get a bread machine to help me make a loaf of French bread. I’m new to your channel but I’ve made MANY of your recipes already and we love every one of them. Thank you! 😊
Hi Robyn! I noticed this one also didn't have the pdf version yet, hopefully this gets added to the list! Again thank you so much for sharing you recipes! 🤍
(edit) i just realized its the same recipe as your other one, but uploaded at a diff time! im also watching from the California, Sacramento!
Thanks for the video. Have you ever made the french bread in the bread maker? I know the crust is the best part but I have a setting on my maker for it and just wondered….
Watching from Wayne, Michigan. Excellent product!!
I'm making this bread now… Now I see you use the dip and scoop measuring of flour,,,, no wonder I've had to add a LOT of extra flour as it is kneading.. A question, the cup you used to measure the flour, is it actually " a 1 cup exact" ? thank you sure hope my bread comes out good
Watching from the UK 👍🏽 can’t wait to start these bread machine recipes 🤤
Is there a reason that you put the yeast in before the flour instead of after? Are you supposed to do that with this namebrand bread machine? Since I just got one I would like to know😃
Hi there. I'm a good home cook and baker but I've always been rubbish at yeast work until I started using my bread maker for dough then, well, it appears the sky's the limit. Your French bread is tomorrow's plan. I'm in Portugal as we retired from Devon, England, a year and a half ago. Love your videos, thank you.
Watching from Oklahoma City. I am a content creator as well, and I agree, it's always interesting to hear where people are watching from! Your camera is very good, crystal clear images. Nice job! Peter
Made this tonight. For some reason my KBS bread machine has a "shape" feature in between fermenting. It was rising nicely after the first ferment but then the shape feature that came next made it collapse. After that there was another ferment feature for 20 minutes. It didn't rise at all. Do all bread machines do the shaping in between fermenting? Maybe next time I will turn it off before the shaping and just manual ferment for another 20 minutes before I roll it out etc. I still baked it but it was just flatter than it should've been.
Thank you from Wrexham Uk

Hello from Idaho. Just Idaho potato’s. Nothing exotic here lol!
Hi Robyn I am watching from Nelson in New Zealand. About to make the french bread to go with my veg soup for tea tonight
I think the recipe was supposed to be 4 c of flour because it looked too liquidy with 3 c in my bread maker. I added the extra cup and it balled up normally.
I can’t wait to do this! Making my way thru your videos! Thank you Robyn! I’m in Washington State! 🥖🥰🇺🇸
