How to Make Pickle Bread For Bread Machine

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 1/4 cup pickle juice (reserve the pickle for later!), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup oil (vegetable or canola), 1 chopped dill pickle (about 1/8 cup chopped), and 1 1/2 cups bread flour to the yeast mixture.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup bread flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms. If using, add 1/8 cup vital wheat gluten now.
  4. Place the dough in your greased bread machine pan. Select the 'dough' or equivalent setting if available and let knead for 10 minutes. Alternatively, if you don't have a dough setting or prefer a hands-on approach, knead the dough for 8-10 minutes by hand.
  5. After kneading is complete, place dough back into the bread machine pan.
  6. Select the 'white bread' or similar setting with a medium crust. Bake according to your bread machine's instructions. This typically takes about 30-45 minutes.
  7. Once baked, remove the bread from the pan and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
