Breach machine recipe, anyone??

I'm wondering if anyone has a recipe for making yeast-less spelt or kamut (or any other approved grain) bread in the bread machine? I prefer spelt, though, only because it's more readily available at the store.

If you could include the recipe as well as the process, that'd be great (I'm a bread machine newbie, so I'll need specifics on what type of setting to put it on).

Thanks!

Sorry, I didn't mention that I am on a lite list 3, so milk is allowed.
But feel free to share recipes for whichever list you're on, for the benefit of the whole community!

I'll answer my own question because I found and tested a great recipe that resulted in delicious, nutty bread that is actually a little fluffier than the store-bought french meadow brand. 
 

  • Spelt Flour 2 cups
  • Bicarbonate of Soda 1tsp
  • Salt 1tsp
  • 2 Medium Eggs – beaten
  • Milk 1.3 cups

Mix dry ingredients. Then add egg, mix in. Finally, add milk and mix in until you get a batter/dough. 
Pop in the bread maker on bake-only setting for 40 minutes. 
Voila!

Hi Shadiahs,
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I tried a similar recipe in the past and ended up with more of a crumbly, cake-like consistency instead of bread. Not sure if it's the eggs in it. It tasted really good but too soft to spread butter or anything. I was just curious if the bread machine helps with the texture?

I definitely had great success with achieving a bread-like consistency with the bread machine. It was not as dense/firm as the French Meadow kind, but it deifnitely held up to butter and even multiple slices of avocado. It was such a great investment (about $100) because the French Meadows bread runs about $7/loaf, and making it myself came out to about $2. 
Recipe change note: I should mention that everytime I make the bread using the recipe above, I get a very soggy mix, so I end up adding about 1/2-3/4 cup more flour -- so please adjust in your recipe as necessary!

Shadiahs for this recipe. I am going to try it with rice flour in my bread machine and see if it will work. Rice bread is $7 a loaf, too! It would be great to have such a fast and easy recipe.
