Sour Cream Onion Gourmet Bread Mix
Make this with your bread machine, stand-type mixer, or by hand.
Can I use this mix in my 1 pound capacity or 1.5 pound capacity bread machine?
We have designed our mixes specifically for 2 lb. capacity machines. However, you may still find success with 1.5 lb. capacity machines. You may expect to see the top of the loaf touch the lid of the machine towards the end of the baking cycle. This may lead to imperfect baking in that one spot on the loaf. The rest of the loaf should be fine. For 1 lb. bread machines, we recommend only running the bread on the dough cycle and then transfer the dough to a pan for baking in a conventional oven. See packaging for more info.
Why do the directions ask me to use a thermometer?
Yeast is very sensitive to heat and other environmental factors. We have tested and designed our mixes to find the sweet spot for yeast activity to get the best rise. Even just a few degrees off on water temperature can make a big impact on the quality of your bread. Measuring the temperature of your water accurately is the best way to ensure consistently successful bread baking.
I followed the directions exactly and I see had a problem with my bread? What can I do?
Sometimes bread issues happen. We are happy to help. Send us a picture of your bread and a picture of the back packaging of your bread mix to our customer support email at customerservice@preparedpantry.com. Include as much detail as possible about your baking process and bread machine model so we can troubleshoot the cause of the issue.
Should I adjust my mix for high altitudes?
We don't recommend making any changes to the mix for high altitudes. We have tested our mixes in a variety of locations and have fine tuned each mix to be the best product possible.
I don't have a bread machine or a stand-type mixer. Can I still make this bread in my oven?
- Yes! Our bread mixes are designed for bread machines or oven. You can make them in a variety of ways such as a free standing artisan loaf, rolls, hamburger buns and more. See our Bread Baking Guide for more info on baking bread in the oven.
s bread is better than you expect--definitely worth a try. See how many people say this is their "absolute favorite" mix.
"I don't like sour cream. I don't like onions. BUT, I Love this bread. I received this bread mix as a gift and made it so that it doesn't go to waste. Now, I'm looking to buy more. You can't taste the sour cream. Better than an onion bagel and much softer. Seriously, a great loaf of bread. This is what friends are for!!" Mongo627
This is simply a refined white bread--the sour cream makes a little moister with a nice, tight crumb. The onions give it just enough flavor.
"My absolute favorite bread. The taste of this bread is wonderful. And the smell of it baking is divine." Patricia Robinson
"Heavenly. This mix is pure heaven! The taste of onion is just right, not too strong, and just enough to know it is clearly onion. It smelled so yummy as it baked. This will make the perfect "bun" for our homemade burgers for dinner tonight!"
Loretta Moreland"Ridiculously amazing. The bread is packed with flavor, with a very soft center with an amazing crust. . . . it makes great sandwiches and toasts up magnificently well." Rob Waters
- Makes a large loaf--nearly two pounds--of flavorful homemade bread
- SAF yeast packet included!
- Made with real sour cream and sweet onions
- Makes perfect bread in all popular 1 1/2 to 2-pound bread machines--or in the oven.
The mix is amazing... flavor is spot on an the fact that it was easy to make in a bread machine is the perfect combination. Thank you!
Very soft crumb with a fabulous taste!!
Sorry, I haven't used it yet
I bought the country white and made it. The hubs absolutely loves it. I take my bread machine camping and make bread as it's super easy. I'm on my second order.
The sour cream and onion bread mix not only smelled great while baking it was delicious when done!
