In reply to the discussion: Bread machine rec? [View all]Backseat Driver
(4,392 posts)27. I have an Oster - use it fairly often and mainly to add fresh bread w/beef stew
I've used it to make the dough for cinnamon rolls that then rise and bake in the regular oven; I've done whole wheat and rye breads in the machine as well that came out pretty good. Hate to have the flour all over the kitchen. I used to make it from scratch sans machine, and it took all day. Back then, I had a butcher block countertop that worked so well for kneading to perfection. I don't own a stand mixer.
I received it as a gift after our ELCA pastor made the communion bread once a month. Yay, no more fish food wafers; tasty crusty bread! That was about 20 years back.
