Help with Pesto and Herb Bread

[masimmons]

Has anyone made this recipe from Complete CL page 108? It is made in a bread machine, but the directions say to use the "European bake cycle." My machine doesn't have a cycle called this and the directions don't mention it either. I hope someone can help me figure out how to program my machine.

I have a Breadman with a European cycle, and it's used for baking crispier crusts (like French bread crust). It bakes longer than the regular cycle, so if you have cycle that bakes longer, just try that one. I don't think you'd have a problem even if you baked it at the regular cycle. The crust just wouldn't be quite as crispy. Good luck!

Thanks for the quick response. I have a Zo and it has a French Bread cycle. I'll try that one.
