How it compares
Sweet programs bake at lower heat or for less time because sugar, fat and eggs brown quickly. Many manufacturers advise against the delay timer here because these recipes often use perishable ingredients.
When will the bread be ready?
Pick a start time to see when to add mix-ins and when it finishes, or enter when you want it ready to get the start time and the delay-timer setting.
Timer and manual notes
Delay Start works with Cycles 1–11, 13, 15 and 21 and can be set so the total, cycle time plus delay, reaches up to 13 hours. The manual does not recommend Delay Start for Gluten Free Bread.
