Lynne - I LOVE my mini-Zo! I've had fantastic luck with the 1# recipes in Linda Rehberg's Bread Machine Magic and More Bread Machine Magic books (all recipes were tested and have instructions for 1#, 1+1/2# and 2# loaves.) Both books have versions of Portuguese Sweet Bread -- one that bakes in the machine (in the "More..." book), one more elaborate and closer to KAF's recipe that you do on the dough cycle, shape and bake in an oven (in the other book.) Definitely worth getting both books; your mini-Zo will be in constant use!
Back to the PortSweet - both recipes call for: 1/3-1/2c water (use the lessor amount and check 5mins into kneading and add water if needed), 1 egg, 3T butter, 1/4c sugar, 2c Bread flour.
Then: for bake in machine version- 3/4t salt, 1+1/2T dry milk powder, 2t active dry yeast.
For the bake in oven version - 3T sweetened condensed milk, 1/2t salt, 2T instant potato flakes, 3t active dry yeast, 1/2t vanilla extract, 1/8t lemon extract, pinch nutmeg, egg white for glaze; bake at 325deg for 50-60mins.
