Onion and garlic loaf

This is really more of a reminder to anyone with a breadmaker, than a proper recipe.

We have a Panasonic SD253 breadmaker and it is wonderful. We have used it twice a week for the last year or so to make white or wholemeal loaves. However, we have only recently tried some of the other recipes that came with the breadmaker. They are really good.

This recipe makes a pleasantly flavoured savoury loaf. It's not strongly flavoured and could probably take a big increase in the amount of garlic that is used, for those of you so inclined
