SUCCESS TIP
For flat beer, open the can or bottle and let it stand about 1 hour before using. The flat beer is necessary for good-textured bread.

SUCCESS TIP
If your bread machine doesn't have a Raisin/Nut signal, add the peanuts 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle end. Check your bread machine's use-and-care book to find out how long the last kneading cycle runs.

TRY THIS
The smoked Cheddar cheese adds a subtle smoky flavor, which goes nicely with the salted peanuts. Regular sharp or mild Cheddar cheese will also give you a loaf of tasty bread.
