    Recipe using Pamela's Bread Mix:

    • 1 large egg
    • 1 tsp water
    • 3 TBSP buttermilk, or 3 TBSP milk plus ¾ tsp vinegar, or 2 TBSP plain yogurt
    • ⅓ cup Pamela's Bread Mix
    • 1 tsp baking powder
Directions

    Grease the inside of a large latte cup, a small glass or porcelain bowl, or a one cup glass measuring cup with oil or butter or non-stick spray. Mix egg, water and buttermilk well in the cup or bowl. Combine Baking & Pancake Mix and sugar, or Bread Mix and baking powder, and add to wet ingredients and mix well.

    Using a rubber spatula or your finger, wipe the extra batter from the cup or bowl sides. Bake in a microwave oven on high for 85 seconds. The time needed to bake the bread will vary depending on if bowl is ceramic or glass, and on the wattage of the microwave. Once baked, turn out on rack to cool before slicing. If bottom of bread is not fully cooked, put back in the cup and microwave for an additional 5 to 10 seconds until the bread is done.

Pretty good! I did the Baking Mix version with egg and yogurt, and put it in a mug. I didn't realize how high the batter would rise - it fit, but then slicing it was a bit hard because I didn't want to crush it. Next time I will use a flatter Pyrex bowl. It's pretty bland, which I guess is good for bread. Next we will try it with the flax for eggs and with almond milk/vinegar. Overall, we will do it again. In the mug, it made 4 slices that I toasted and ate with jam for breakfast.

Fast, easy and moist

Worked great, better than I expected. I used almond milk w/vinegar instead of yogurt. The slices toasted perfectly too.

I don't have a microwave; how long would I bake these in an oven? Has anyone tried that?

Tried Marcia'so recipe for 4 minutes in a 1 cup glass measuring cup & it came out too done. Cooked at 3:30 minutes & worked great. Just needed to slice off about 1/4 inch on the bottom for more uniform texture. Thanks!

I make Pam's bread machine loaf and it takes just as much time, or less, to prep. I get a whole loaf, cut it up, and put it in the freezer. It tastes great toasted. This quick micro recipe is horrible. I tried it three different ways, also with the yogurt. It was dry, despite adding more liquid, and hard. I ended up going to my freezer, pulling out two frozen pieces from the bread machine loaf, and toasting them.
