Can I use a oven instead of a bread machine? Baking the GF dough inside a oven to make bread? Will it work?

I have a Cuisinart CBK-200 machine and it works great. There is a GF cycle on the machine and I have not had a bad loaf yet. I alter the recipe as follows: 2 cups milk vs 1-2/3, add 1-1/2 tsp sugar to help make the bread rise fully. Other than that, it's pretty simple. I don't see a reason why you can't bake in an oven; there are directions for both on the bag.

Yes, I have always used this mix in the oven. I also use the oven for the rising as the temp by me isn't usually warm enough outside. I set oven to warm (sometimes around 100 degrees) and it works great!

OF course you can. Follow step by step directions on the side of the package. You will get great gluten free bread either way. Good luck

You have to use Bread Machine yeast. Red star is the best. Comes in a little brown jar. Amazon sells it. Also do not use regular flour. Bread flour is superfine and rises better. Make sure it is unbleached.

Quite probably; I simply put the ingredients in and wait. However, that said, this machine is not one I'd recommend. It has too often spewed dough over the edges of the insert, so that the dough falls to the hot coils and burns, and is impossible to fully remove from the machine. That MAY be because I've used gluten-free flours, but I can't figure why (a) if gluten-free is the reason the machine's instructions should so state; and (b) why this has never happened to me before with bread machines.

Of course you can. Mix the ingredients in a bowl and proceed as you would with any other loaf. When I am feeling lazy, I let the bread machine mix it, and set it on the dough cycle, then take it out, kneed, let it rise, and bake in the oven. Sometimes I form it into rolls. I have found the Hodgson mixes to be good quality with great taste. Enjoy!

Sorry, I have never used a bread machine. If you use other regular flours instead of premade mixes when you use your machine, I would think this Rye Flour would work just fine for you. Hope this helps :)

I have never thought to used it for baking bread.. where do you find recipes?

I only use active dry yeast and have o experience with SAF yeast. I do no use a bread machine when I bake.

I never had any luck baking in this oven. Same problems you're having, especially with breads and cakes. Chicken, pork chops, roasts, and fish work best. With bread, I had to do some trial and error with the time and also do the last five minutes after turning the loaf upside down to complete the baking.

I haven't baked bread in my stove, however have made too many pizzas to count- I see no problem with baking bread in this oven after you have mastered achieving and maintaining your temperature. I highly recommend the infrared thermometer so you can get an accurate reading of both the stone temperature and the air temp within the oven. Like with pizza, I wouldn't expect perfect results the first few attempts but now that I am familiar with it I love this oven.

Are you using a regular home oven for baking? How high can you set the temperature? I'm pretty sure it doesn't go higher than 500-550, which should be fine. I can't imagine baking bread at higher temps than that anyway.

not sure if my reply comes too late or not but i use my breadman solely to make gluten free breads. i used the gluten free setting once and never went back to it. depending on the recipe, i use the fruit & nut setting, rapid white or i create my own. i also use it to mix pizza dough because i don't have a food processor. i haven't had any problems with the machine and i've had it for a year. i'm still puzzled at all the reviews that say the machine jumps around on the counter while mixing or the loud noises it makes.

Someone posted this on Walmart's Q&A about this DDO... A: Yes, this can be used to bake bread. There are many different recipes available, with many, many variations. Here is a basic home baked bread recipe: 1 1/4 cup warm water 1 package active dry yeast 2 tbsp soft shortening 2 tsp salt 2 tbsp sugar 3 cups sifted flower Pour warm water into large mixing bowl. Sprinkle yeast over water, stir until dissolved. Add shortening, salt, sugar and 1 1/2 cups flour. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl often. Stir in remaining flour and beat with a spoon until smooth, 1 1/2 minutes. Scrape batter from the sides of the bowl. Cover dough with clean cloth and let rise in a warm place, free from draft until doubled in bulk, about 30 minutes. When batter has risen, stir down by beating about 25 strokes. Spread batter in a greased Dutch oven. Batter will be sticky. Let rise in warm place until batter reaches 1/4" from top of pot, about 40 min. Bake in oven at 375F for 45 to 50 minutes until golden brown. When done, brush top with butter while still hot. Posted By Lodge Product Expert

Yes, there is a cycle for bread dough, which kneads and allows dough to rise, but does not bake. You would only have to form the rolls and bake in your oven. I have not used the cycle on this machine, but did so with my old machine. The work is in the kneading, I think, so it would help.

Re Breadman TR875: I am interested in your "gluten-free" baking results. The only bread machine I have seen for this specific purpose is called the "bready" and it is extremely expensive (~ $400.00).Gratefully,PJM

bread question again..... assuming one bakes a loaf on the small size....does this oven bake bread evenly.i cannot use my current black and decker toaster oven for baking because the tops on the muffins, bread, or cakesactually burn. So i need to use the regular oven for bread and muffins. Would love to use the cuisinart brick oven.

Yes you can use it like an oven. The brochure tells you how to use it as an oven. You can bake cakes and just about anything else. I love mine.

I went on line and got a recipe from a competitor for a 9 or 11 cup food processor. I tried the recipe that called for 4 cups of flour (2 loaves of bread). I may not have followed the recipe steps of adding what when??? It was too much and the processor just couldn't get the dough around the bowl. I put the dough into the bread machine and worked it there and it eventually was worked enough. I tried a 2 cup recipe twice and it made excellent dough both times with about a minutes worth of processing. I have the dough raising for the oven now and it is as nice or nicer than the Kitchen Aide mixer,or the bread machine makes. So yes, for my pizza dough recipe (-2 cups flour) and roll or small bread recipes it will be a snap. I may make up some pre-packaged bags for the freezer to take out and fix in a hurry. I was nervous and kept feeling for any heat from the motor, but nothing.
