Bread Machine Seitan
Removed some spices so that seitan is basic and can take on the flavours of whatever sauces or sides it’s paired with.
Once baked, it can be cut and sliced and divided into 4 equal ~1lb servings. Freezes well.

Bread Machine Seitan
Using the Zojirushi PAC20 regular bread setting with medium crust.
Ingredients
- 4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 1/4 cups water
- 2 cups vital wheat gluten
- 1/2 cup garbanzo flour
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 4 tsp onion powder
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp paprika
Instructions
- Dump the wet stuff into the machine.
- Dump the dry stuff into the machine.
- Push the start button.
- When baked, let the loaf settle and cool before dividing.
Notes
The vast majority of the cooking time is the bread machine treating the ingredients like bread dough (letting the yeast rest, letting the dough rise, etc.) If I could figure a way to bypass those steps, it would probably be done in an hour.

This is exactly how every single recipe ever published on the internet should read. I will be making this tomorrow, I hadn’t previously seen the suggestion for Worcestershire sauce and I am thrilled to give that a go. Thank you for your recipe!
Wow! Thanks so much. This site was put together for my family to choose what to have for dinners, but I’m glad you found it and enjoy the recipe.
Holy wow! I will admit, I was dubious about this, but it turned out amazing. The ‘loaf’ was different than how we normally make seitan, but it’s a LOT easier and every bit as tasty. Thank you for this.
This collection of recipes was really put together for my fussy family, but I’m happy you stumbled across it and found it useful. Cheers!
