My Very First Breadmaker!!
HH gave this to me for Christmas because he knew I've been wanting one for so long and I've baked 3 loaves so far (lots of ingredients to buy)! It takes about 3 hours to cook a fully developed loaf and almost 1 1/2 hours for rapid. Homemade bread is so delicious! You basically add the ingredients in order (yeast always last), press the settings, the breadman kneads and bakes, press stop, eject, and enjoy!
I barely have to clean the pan because it is nonstick! Love it love it love it!
I would suggest if you want to begin baking right away to look for bread machine recipes online so that you can have your ingredients ready once you purchase.
**Update**
I've had this since Christmas and it has been working fine. I'm still satisfied with it. Do note that my bread comes out better and more developed with Rapid Rise Yeast.
Love it to knead but not bake
I've found that the bread baked in it has a thick crust, even on the light setting. That's not a big deal though, I prefer to us it on the kneading cycle, then I remove the bread to bake in the oven, 350 degrees for 15 to 25 minutes (depending on size and shape) and I get a perfect loaf every time. This summer I also plan to test out the jam making cycle. I truely recommend this for others that just can't knead a loaf of bread right on their own.
Suggested use, Cinnamon Bread:
Use the Brioche (Rich white bread recipe) that is in the book on knead only, at the end of the cycle, on a floured surface, roll it out into a rectangle the width of your bread pan. Sprinkle with a cinnamon sugar mixture (ratio is to taste), roll like a jelly roll and place in greased bread pan seam side down. Allow to rise in a warm place for between 1/2 hour to 1 hour until doubled in size. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with a little sugar. Bake at 350 until golden and has a hollow sound when tapped. Enjoy.
Wonderful toy!
I love this bread machine! I make a ton of bread with it. Mixes and different recipes and everything comes out perfectly. My co-workers espically love it. Clean up is the easiest, and it's not huge so storage is not really an issue. It takes you about 5 minutes of your time to make a wonderful fresh loaf of bread! I just love it!
