Fallen DragonKin: My mum gave me her old breadmaker this summer, there was a few recipes in the instructions but i think the amounts of ingredients were translated wrong so the results weren't great. I tried searching for recipes online without much luck, and then i found this book. I bought it first as kindle edition, then realized it's a bit awkward having a cookbook on kindle so bought the paperback as well. It's brilliant. My breadmaker is for 1lb and 1.5 lb, the recipes in the book are all given for 1 lb, 1.5 lb and 2 lb, so there is no need to calculate anything. It also appears very well researched, the writers tried all of the recipes, which is reassuring. There is a variety of recipes, white breads, wholemeal, rye, with vegetables or sweet, also recipes for doughs, so the ingredients can be put in, the breadmaker mixes and rises it, and then you can take it out and continue. i think it's a great book , i don't really like supermarket breads because of all the additives and softeners and so on, and it's so easy to put all the ingredients in the breadmaker, takes five minutes. so far over the past few weeks i've done mainly wholewheat breads, wholewheat with rye or seeds, and yesterday i've...

Smart Shopper: I have owned the first edition of the cookbook forever. It finally fell apart from use. This edition includes all the older recipes and 130 newer recipes. A "Specialty Breads" chapter includes hamburger and hotdog buns, pretzels, cocktail rye loaves, pita bread, soft bread sticks, English muffins, ham & cheese& broccoli calzones, Another chapter includes sweet breads and coffee cakes, including coconut-pecan rolls, caramel sticky buns, orange coconut sweet rolls, gooey orange rolls, Also a chapter on fruit breads.
I bought a used bread machine for $10.00 in a thrift store. I use the bread machine for kneading, then take out the dough after the first rise, put it in a pan, punch it down, let it rise and put it in the oven. With the bread machine recipes all the ingredients go in the machine at one time. The machine mixes, kneads, and makes it rise. The only work the baker has to do is gather the ingredients, measure them, and dump them in the machine. Voila!
I have tried all the basic breads and liked them all except oatmeal pita bread. Oatmeal pita-not a good idea.
One very serious criticism is the author's use of measuring in eighths of a cup--1/8,5/8, and 7/8....

Chandler: I have ordered several bread machine cookbooks on Amazon and I have found wonderful loaves come out of my bread machine with this one...in fact the Jalapeno cheddar is one of our favorites (but we alter the recipe a bit for special diets--great thing about bread makers...you can!). That one is wonderful for sandwiches and a good side for a Southwestern meal.

We have a 2 pound bread maker and I was pleased that this included recipes for the larger loaf machines, as well as the medium, and small loaves...every recipe lists measurements for a small, medium, and large loaf.

There is a VERY wide variety of breads and it also includes easy doughs to finish into rolls, etc. The book has 138 recipes total. It even has a great recipe for soft pretzels! So you are sure to expand your thinking in terms of what you can do with your bread maker.

Here are some other examples:
Multigrain buttermilk bread
Honey Whole Wheat Bread
Whole Wheat Pita Bread
Authentic French Bread
Dill Bread
Buttermilk Cheese Bread
Russian Black Bread
Orange Coconut Sweet Rolls
Tomato Bread
Beer Bread...
...and lots more in between!

That said, I am an...

L. Bishop: I've always preferred to eat bread with substance to it. I never could stand common white bread. But at five bucks per loaf for "artisan" breads paying that much for bread seemed a bit extravagant. Maybe bread machine bread isn't as pretty, but you can get the same quality for much much less "dough". (Pun intended)

When the economy tanked last fall I decided to do two things. Get back into sewing by purchasing a new sewing machine and made some garments and in March of this year I bought my Breadman Pro and ordered this book at about the same time. I've made several of the white and whole wheat breads found in this book and they have all been super. I've made the 1.5 pound loaves as well as the two pound loaves. They have all come out beautifully.

These are the ones I've made with great success:

Brown Bagger's White Bread. This has a bit more substance than your usual white bread. It has wheat germ, egg and potato flakes. Very, very tasty!

Debbie's Honey Whole Wheat Bread. This one is nice, but I'd use the milder whole wheat white flour if you make this one. This is the only one I had problems with.

Daily Bread. This one almost an entire meal in...
