It’s one of the things I miss most. I still bake it for the family, but the delicious aroma is as close as I get myself.
 
This is what i make, in fact just taken one out of the breadmaker.

Very low carb Bread
If you are Gluten intolerant, I’m sorry it’s not for you.
Ingredients
150 grams Vital Wheat Gluten
80 grams Golden flax seed meal* (you can use non golden, but get a darker looking bread)
50 grams Oat fibre
1 tbsp Coconut flour (optional, but I find bread toasts better with it)
1tsp Xanthum gum, OR 1 tbsp Psyllium husk, (optional)
216 ml water (warm to activate yeast)
1tsp honey ( to activate yeast)
4 tbsp Erythritol
2 eggs
1tsp salt
40 – 70 grams butter, (original recipe 70 grams, I use 40)
7 grams, (1 sachet) dried yeast.
Bread maker
Put warm water in a jug, etc with dried yeast and honey. Ready to use when foamy on the top.
Put salt in the bottom, all dried ingredients on top of salt.
Lightly beat the eggs, and add with yeast mix.
Settings Large loaf, I use medium crust,
Basic bread. Hit start and wait however long your bread maker takes.
Mixer and oven
Place ingredients in mixer bowl as above, mix until combined, and knead for 5 min’s.
Shape and put dough in bread tin, cover loosely with oiled cling film, to allow to rise.
Prove until doubled in size (1 – 2 hours)
Bake at 180° C for 40 min’s
Based on Diedre’s low carb bread, google it and you’ll find loads of sites with their version.
* I buy Golden Flax Seeds and pour into a running Liqiudiser to grind my own(cheaper)
Approx’ 2 grams of carbs per slice.
if i can attach a photo, i will do so you can see the results.
 
Still a bit too warm but.....

**** file too big, reduced resolution and bingo.
This was on dark crust.
I've made your bread twice now, works great, but the dough is pretty stiff so making it look pretty like that is beyond me.
I'm wondering if I intentionally overdid the yeast or added some baking powder, would it make for a decent roll using this recipe?
 
I don't know what bread maker you have, mine is a Panasonic sd254. Panasonic are generally regarded as some of the best you can buy.
You can use the dough for rolls, although i haven't. If the dough is too stiff, trying increasing the liquid a little bit, or even the butter. It is a bit trial and error, as different bread makers, size of eggs, kitchen temp, can all affect things. The original recipe was 236ml warm water. I've given up baking in the oven, as ours seems to cause all sorts of problems, i don't think i can trust it. If you put too much yeast you will definitely know, it will push the bread maker lid up, and collapse when cooling.
Some of my loaves are higher at one end than the other, that was a particularly good looking one. I had one baked in the oven in a 2lb tin, that Paul Hollywood would have been proud of, the next one identical mix etc, very sorry looking. as long as it's edible, and i can enjoy a sandwich, or toast, i'm not overly worried how it looks.
