Red River Valley Settlers Multi-Grain Bread Mix
Make this with your bread machine, stand-type mixer, or by hand.
Can I use this mix in my 1 pound capacity or 1.5 pound capacity bread machine?
We have designed our mixes specifically for 2 lb. capacity machines. However, you may still find success with 1.5 lb. capacity machines. You may expect to see the top of the loaf touch the lid of the machine towards the end of the baking cycle. This may lead to imperfect baking in that one spot on the loaf. The rest of the loaf should be fine. For 1 lb. bread machines, we recommend only running the bread on the dough cycle and then transfer the dough to a pan for baking in a conventional oven. See packaging for more info.
Why do the directions ask me to use a thermometer?
Yeast is very sensitive to heat and other environmental factors. We have tested and designed our mixes to find the sweet spot for yeast activity to get the best rise. Even just a few degrees off on water temperature can make a big impact on the quality of your bread. Measuring the temperature of your water accurately is the best way to ensure consistently successful bread baking.
I followed the directions exactly and I see had a problem with my bread? What can I do?
Sometimes bread issues happen. We are happy to help. Send us a picture of your bread and a picture of the back packaging of your bread mix to our customer support email at customerservice@preparedpantry.com. Include as much detail as possible about your baking process and bread machine model so we can troubleshoot the cause of the issue.
Should I adjust my mix for high altitudes?
We don't recommend making any changes to the mix for high altitudes. We have tested our mixes in a variety of locations and have fine tuned each mix to be the best product possible.
I don't have a bread machine or a stand-type mixer. Can I still make this bread in my oven?
- Yes! Our bread mixes are designed for bread machines or oven. You can make them in a variety of ways such as a free standing artisan loaf, rolls, hamburger buns and more. See our Bread Baking Guide for more info on baking bread in the oven.
This is an Americana bread, wholesome and hearty like our grandparents used to make.
The Red River drains the hills and fertile plains of northwestern Minnesota and eastern North Dakota. Settlers have been growing grains in this fertile valley and making hearty, wholesome bread mix since 1820. This Red River Valley wheat bread is made with eight hearty grains--a great heritage bread that your family will enjoy, a wholesome bread without preservatives.
The grains in this bread are finely chopped. They bake soft and chewy, with a hardy and wholesome texture, yet the bread is still soft and moist.

Out of town
We did like this bread and will buy it again, but only when it is on sale as it's not our overall favorite wheat bread that we buy from y'all.
Makes the best old fashioned Toast. Removes from the pan easily and the loaf holds together well.
