Made my 50th loaf of bread today in the bread machine. Store-bought bread averages about $2.50 a loaf, so 50 loaves would be $125. Bread machine cost $100 and I figure the flour and other ingredients for those was well under $25.
Here’s to 50 more loaves of fresh baked bread.
My bread machine died, developed a leak. So now I make the dough in the stand mixer and just let it rise. Sometimes I wish I still had it, but it’s mostly good. Just need to set a timer to punch it down then put it in the oven!
Its easier with gluten free bread! No rise time.
It also isn’t anywhere as good bread, but, you know, not really a choice for me so shittier breads it is!
If you find yourself missing it a lot, keep an eye out for secondhand. Many kitchen appliances can be found relatively easily secondhand.
Its been about a decade, so it’s a very minor missing!
Recipe?
I have a few recipes for bread or rolls? I use the King Arthur Onion Bun recipe that’s on their website fairly frequently.
Yeah, your bread recipe sounds quick and easy. That’s what I need so I don’t go down the sourdough rabbit hole every time.
Haha, it is easy! I never got into sourdough. The cat will bite me if I don’t feed her. Sourdough will just die.
Cats have to do this, to teach their servants the priorities.
