Guest guest Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I've seen them at thrift stores and thought about getting them. What kind of breads do they make? I don't eat eggs. I don't use refined sugar but other sweeteners are ok. Can you do substitutions in bread machines? It sounds so much cheaper in the long run than buying bread.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 You can do anything with it. I rarely bake in mine, just use it on the dough cycle, but you can bake. They come with a booklet of recipes that you could probably alter. The commercial bread mixes are pretty good. I bought a Bob's Red Mill whole wheat one that was wonderful. It had honey in it, but no eggs, if I remember right. Audrey S.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Yes, you can do substitutions in bread machines. Some of them will also make loaf breads like pumpkin or banana bread. You can also use them to knead your dough and take it out just before the final rise and shape into other shapes and do the final rise on a cookie sheet and then bake in the oven.

It is cheaper, but it's not cheap. If you use quality ingredients, you can make wholesome whole-grain products, but you have to purchase good organic flours and grains. In my opinion, a bread machine is useful only to mix and knead the dough. I don't like the way it bakes the bread so I always remove the dough after the first rise, then finish it 'by hand,' that is to say, I shape the loaf, let it rise the final time and bake it in the oven. I am delighted with the variety of breads I can make. There are endless sites with machine bread recipes. Once you know how your bread machine requires the addition of ingredients - some do liquids and yeast first, then the dry ingredients, others do the opposite - you can adapt any recipe to your machine.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 My favorite bread machine recipe has neither eggs nor sugar in it (it does have honey). - " pierce407720032003 " <sacornelius > I've seen them at thrift stores and thought about getting them.
