40g grapeseed oil

100g spinach puree

2 tbsp formula milk (or normal milk powder)

2) Put in all the above ingredients except starter dough (in sequence listed above).

3) Insert and lock breadpan into breadmaker.

4) Select Mode No.1 (basic bread), select weight 700g, select crust intensity light, press start. (I use Donlim Breadmaker)

5) When all ingredients are combined, around 2 minutes, add in starter dough bit by bit. 

6) Bread should be done in 3hours and 19 minutes.

Tips : Remove bread from breadmaker immediately when the bread is ready to avoid the bread shrinking.

Serve with your favorite jam or toppings, otherwise, throw into freezer ziplock bread for the coming busy week on-the-go breakfast! To serve, just steam for 15 minutes ( I throw into the steamer straight from the freezer the moment I wake up so that when I am ready to go, so is the bread) and it tastes as soft as freshly made!
