Elora’s lil smile is so contagiously precious. N THEN daddy walks in n she runs to him… oh how she loves her daddy! 🥰 I’m a 68 year old grandmama up here in Illinois n jes love you all!
I loved this video; it brought back such good memories for me. My grandma (God rest her soul) LOVED her bread machine. She grew up making home made bread in a wood fired oven. She lived through the Great Depression with three children and a husband who found jobs hard to come by. She made fantastic home made bread but it was a long process. One Christmas one of my Aunts got Grandma a bread machine and SHE LOVED IT!! She made bread all the time and it was so easy. My grandma was the best cook out there, but none of us complained about her bread machine bread because SHE was so happy with it, lol. Home made is almost always best because you put your heart and soul into it, BUT as you age it sure is nice to find machines that can help in the kitchen. Now I wanna make some bread, lol. HUGS to you and your sweet family.
My Mom got me hooked on a bread machine many years ago. We use to watch it “do it’s thing” and would laugh about how we must have looked. 😂 I usually make a garlic herb bread. Sometimes the paddle gets stuck in the bottom of the bread but, you just cut or pull it out. Bread machines have changed over the years … there are some that actually make the bread to look like regular loaves as to the upright loaves. Have not tried the jam recipe yet. I have also made the dough for pizza. Have fun 🍞
I love the smell of bread baking. I really like crunchy crust bread! Your kids are so sweet ❤
Love the smell of bread baking but I do not like eating it. My Dad loved home made bread so we had it often. No bread machine just muscles.
This video made me want to start cooking bread.I learned something every time I watch.You and Buddy make a great team.
My mom bought me a bread machine in 2000 and I loved to make raisin bread in it. Found out that the recipe called for raisins, used regular sunmaid and they were like rocks in my bread. My mom said use baking raisins and that bread was delicious. My dad was asking all the time if I made a new loaf. Great memories! Thanks for the comparison of both ways.
I love smelling bread cooking.
When the bread machine says it’s 90 minutes left, you take the dough out and take out the mixing padle, clean and oil spray the mold and bring back the dough. That way at the end it will unmold easily with only a small hole in the end.
Thanks for the comparison!! I've been wanting to actually try a bread maker. I think the overall difference is the love in the hands of the homemade 😉❤
Hi Steph, I used to have a Bread machine, it was huge but back when they first came out they were large and clunky. I’m going to look into getting another one but need to find a good recipe gluten and grain free. Thanks for another great video!
Steph, I enjoyed every second of this video. Very enjoyable! Thank you! Your family is awesome. And… I have a hankering to make bread now!
So sweet! I use my breadmaker in the fall and winter! But now I think I'll make a loaf this evening!
I never new how easy it is to make a loaf of bread,thank you Steph,stay safe
Hello Mrs Denman, I have loved a peace of the bread that you made because it looked like a really good French loaf with the crusty outside. I was imagining it sliced and made into delicious garlic and butter bread. I’m not a baker but I think I’ll try your recipe. God bless you and your family.
I make huge batches of homemade noodles and pizza dough in my bread maker for mixing purposes only, saves so much time.
I like using the bread machine. I tend to duck at making, or trying to make, homemade bread. I love making the bread that is like the steakhouse honey wheat bread. I have several recipes. The one that uses instant coffee, i can make it in the machine, or let the machine do the mix and rise, then i take it out, divide it and make small loaves or rolls and bake in the oven.
Your homemade bread looks great! Everyone looked happy to just eat fresh bread and help with the video!😂😂😂
Thank you for the video!
♥️❤️💗💓💖💝💘💞💕💌❣️
The type of oil doesn't matter....as long as its in there...makes the crust soft, the sugar feeds the yeast so dont go over 3 tablespoons max or it will grow out of the pan. Instinctively you added the liquid ingredients first....glad you did, but just so you know....thats very important. For cleaning that paddle comes off. Also get a crochet hook or a latch hook to put in your flatware drawer in case you need it if your breadmaker didn't come with a tool that looks like a hook...its to pull the paddle out of the bread if it dislodges and gets stuck in the bottom of the bread after baking. That happens a lot with wheat bread and dark loaves. The dough ball...if you machine doesn't pick up all the flour...add a little water, if to wet add a little flour. Proofing...your bread machine will go through 2 or 3 rises depending on type of bread....when it stops spinning (try not to open it for too long then) its heating up, it will do that 2x. Then bake. It beeps when done. Dont touch it before that...learned that the hard way. Its a non stick pan ...just turn it over. When you put the pan in or remove...turn it 1/4 to lock in place....your kids are beautiful...if you want a traditional size loaf.... machine makes artisian style.... You can cut the loaf in half then turn it side ways then slice like a normal loaf. Hope this helps
They both look yummy 😋
It’s amazing how Buddy timing in always in sync taste testing time. You should be able to Google a PDF file manual for your bread maker
When that bread was crunching in Conor’s mouth I was so craving homemade bread 😂😂 Ty for the comparison !! Love homemade bread😀
You crack me up! Opening showing you slicing bread without a serrated knife/ bread knife!
Great side by side test Steph ! I don’t know what bead setting you had the bread machine bread on cause they make different crust with different breads , if you didn’t have it on homemade bread you might not have gotten the same crusty crunchy crust as your loaf pan made ! Plus the bread machine loaf was a 2 lb loaf and the loaf pan was only a 1 lb loaf approx. size I think! But like you said it’s a win-win either way and for a time saving advantage the bread machine makes a great loaf of bread! I add things to my bread also like herbs, or dried fruit and nuts , Aldi I use basic 4 cereal sometimes to my bread to make a variety for whatever I want to use the bread for ! And let the bread machine do the work for me 🤣!! Great video I really enjoyed it ! Oh and go on line and look up your model & type of bread machine and you can see what each selection of types of bread crust each selection makes , or actually PawPaw has a Manuel he got with the new bread machine he just received from a viewer and it probably tells the texture and crust of each selection of bread listed ! God bless ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈
I use my bread machine for the dough cycle which is an hour and a half on mine. This mixes kneads the dough the first time, and rises the first time. I then take it out, knead it just a few times,place in my bread pan, and bake it in my oven. So much easier on the hands.
Both breads look so delicious, I used to love homemade bread with some butter and drizzled honey on it. Also it looked so easy to make.
Nice video Steph, as usual. I have a bread machine but I haven't used it since last winter. I have also made home made bread but not in a while. Now I want to dig out my machine. Thanks Steph. Now you have to have a bread making contest on the hill.
I like your loaf pan recipe. It looks very easy to make even though it takes a little longer to make. I may have to try making it myself.
It looked like the bread maker bread is like a traditional sandwich bread and the one you made was for a unique type sandwich. Both looked great. Me, I’m lazy and would do the bread maker. If I was taking it somewhere special, would make your bread and shock everyone. ❤❤❤
I love to cut the heels off while still warm and slather some good butter on it ,oh my ! My grandma used to make bread every week ,several loaves ,it was sooooo good!
My two boys LOVE bread. And we go through at least a loaf a day in this house. I want a bread machine now! Maybe I’m missing it, but is there a way you (and I meant to mention to Dan and Lou too) to put the recipes you are using in the description or comments? Love the videos!
The 2 cycles of kneading on the bread machine develops the gluten in the bread. No kneading in the loaf bread results in a different texture. Try using traditional yeast (active dry) for better flavour. Instant yeast is flavourless in bread. I use my bread maker on the dough setting to do all the kneading etc and bake in pans in oven.
Conner is so funny. I'd love the crunch too. Both would be awesome...😊😊
Omg I wanted the heels of both with butter 😮❤ great video Stephanie thank you
I've always been scared to make my own bread. After watching Pawpaw make his first loaf, I thought I'm going to try this. So I made my first loaf. It was good. So thank you, you just answered my next question. Whether to buy a bread maker or not. I think I will get one just for the convenience and ease of it. Great video enjoy your day 🖤
I have a problem with freshly baked bread.
I can't be trusted....I will snack on it until it's gone.
The crunch of the bread made my mouth water.
Now I have to make bread and it's 104 here in California
🤣 sammmme. I kept eating it!!
Nice comparison. God’s blessings
That crunch.. yummm.. a friend gave me a bread machine I now want to try. Thanks for this..
The bread 🍞 machine seems awesome. I have never used one. Connor and Elora are cute bread taste testors 😊! The bread machine did it all! I am impressed! Your bread looked good! 😊
I just made your bread and am eating a piece right now! So good! I used bread flour because that’s what I had! Thanks for the recipe! 🍞❤️
Bread machine are super handy when time is limited I use mine mainly for dough making
Hi Stephanie enjoyed your take on home made and bread machine. I like you like the bread machine for ease I used to use mine all the time as my son when young could only eat home made bread. I like the process of making dough and enjoy kneading a good dough too and satisfaction of it. Used to put my bread on a timer and wake up to fresh bread in the morning the smell to wake up was amazing. Thanks for sharing love Eloras and Conner reactions. Take care God Bless. 🙏💕🧑🏻🍳
‼️😮Wow! yummy yummy, nothing like fresh homemade bread. I would eat them both.😋‼️
thanks Steph!! Looks yummy! Perfect timing for Buddy to taste too!!❤
I love my bread maker. Most bread makers work the same. You do liquids first. Sometime you can find the manufacturer instructions on line. I have also used my breadmaker to mix the dough and then baked in the oven, that's how i do my rolls.
I love the smell of fresh bread
I LOVE bread with a crunch.
I love making bread, wish I could find a bread machine that would do my 5lb at once! I bet that’d be good with some melted garlic butter brushed on top 👏🏻👏🏻
Stephanie I hope you will make more in your bread machine and there is box bread at Walmart you can buy that might give you some different flavors. But a tip for you I'm sure you read your instructions for your machine and though you could get away with just one knead cycle, I actually like to do it one more time. This ensures proper gluten formation for soft bread. Plus, if you "Spritz" the top of dough with water a few times to make sure the dough doesn’t dry out on top during rising. This is an optional step Stephanie, but also helps the crust to turn golden in the baking step. Have fun with bread making and I really hope you make more and different kinds.
She didn't have an instruction manual Pawpaw just gave her the machine. Hopefully she'll do a Google search and get the instruction manual. Or they usually have a video you can watch,✌️
Every bread machine I have had has a warming cycle. After it's done baking, it automatically goes into the warming cycle. Some bread machines will ask if you want it to do this. Some just do it. Their awesome machines. As you said, crusts are different. Next time, put the machine on dark, and it will have a more crunch to it. Their very versatile and can do many things other than just bread. I'm excited to try your homemade pan bread recipe. 🍞 🙂
🤠❤🌵good mornin` steph thanks again girl enjoyed this...have a blessed day 🐝🐝🐐🐐🐐
On the bread machine one you can have hard crust remember you did medium crust .. so if you like harder crust change it up😊... I like hard crust too and I love my bread machine 😀
I love my bread machine. I simply dump the ingredients (in order) in and push start. I often cook beef stew or a whole chicken in my crock pot at the same time. Three hours later, dinner is ready with just a little clean-up. It's great for busy evenings and doesn't heat the house up either.
Ohhh yum!
When I make scratch loaves of bread I don’t use oil but they are also the bowl shape and not as practical. So I guess the oil is the difference here? I also am concerned with teflon coatings inside bread machines. Great video! Glad the whole family weighed in on the results. :)
I loved this video. Now I want fresh bread. I think I will look into a maker. So much saved has far as cleaning etc. ❤
Both look yummy! I like the crust with peanut butter!❤
My dad would make bread in the bread maker it was very good. He would do white bread and cinnamon raisin bread. You know you can do everything in the bread machine then bake it in the oven
They both look yummy 😋
Try the bread machine recipe and add in shredded potatoes and chopped ham. We love that for dinner.
I rather had the bread baked in the oven then in the breadmaker because I like that crunchy crust now you made me miss my mom cuz my mom used to make home bread all the time like that
I love my Breville Bread Maker 🥰 I’ve got my instruction book and it gives clear and concise instructions for all different recipes - noticed your recipe for the Bread Maker didn’t include an ingredient called Bread Improver - most Bread recipes in the instruction book has this ingredient in it 🤔- i use the dough only for pizza bases and for French Bread when I want to make it in long twists and then finish of in the oven- has instructions for that also - I freeze some of my bread and pizza dough and it comes out to freshen up the bread and make a pizza - it’s just great 👍🏻🥰🇦🇺
It’s going to smell like Subway in there. Sooo good. I had one and it’s so easy!
O fresh bread smell ,but the taste is great .Have a great Monday .🤗💚☘️
Steph, u have the best Taste Testers in town i hope we can see u make a Keto Bread someday I'm like pop had to give up bread😀😃🙂🤩👍👍👍🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
When dealing with sticky dough I find it helpful to oil my hands and use a flexible dough scraper. The bread machine seems so convenient.
Both breads look delicious
Good afternoon Stephanie, Buddy, Conner and Elora. Love homemade bread but I don't do too well in the baking department. Both loaves looks almost the same colour wise and yes the bread maker bread is more dense and higher loaf but I would prefer the homemade loaf from scratch. Bread maker bread is fantastic if needed in a pinch real quick that is the way to go. If wanted could always add spices and herbs to either loaf mixing before baking. Thank for sharing. HAGD all.
I loved my DAK! Unfortunately, gifting bread with the hook in the bottom, not a good idea. Now I can't even get the right hook. & they are almost basically expensive as a new machine! Trust me, I've tried. Oh well. Now I just knead. Still yummy. ❤❤❤❤
I had a bread maker and didn’t like the hole in the bottom of the bread. I make your Dutch oven bread every week but have been toying with trying a loaf pan style. I will try this one and let you know!
They both look so good, the bread maker one looks like a loaf of bread from store, I love homemade like that my mom use to make it all the time growing up.
Very impressive Stephanie ❤ I love bread. ❤
Love hearing the crunch and seeing the airy inside of the non-bread machine loaf. I hope someday technology will come far enough along to provide a smell test function, but until then the “virtual” imagination test is pretty satisfying. I agree a bread machine provides a huge convenience factor. Choices/trade offs = options ❤
Bet it did smell sooooo good! Over there!!!!
The bread maker bread reminds me of the bread my momma would make she used coffee cans to make our loaves of bread.
What a great testing. I appreciate the tutorial. Nice to know hie easy the bread maker was to use. We have a Chile with allergies. His special bead is expensive. Maybe we can make it with a bread machine 😊.
Home made anything is good.
We always made bread. Big batches. 10 in the family.
I still make bread. My son's prefer home made over store bought.
Bread machines make the bread just as super crunchy as the hand made bread. If you did a bit of stretch and fold on the dough, it would rise to double the size.. I watch a super British chappie, who has written his own bread recipe book is on You tube .. JACK BAKES.. Have a look-see!. He's a real card. He does a lot of sourdough bread as well. You have such a lovely gentle manner and one can see what a wonderful mom you are. I'm a granny now, so I loved watching the small fry tasting the bread . My children have emigrated to Australia because of our political instability in South Africa. I miss my little granddaughters terribly.
I guess I will Have to dig my bread machine out and make some bread.🙂
I love your videos Steph. 😊
You are So talented. You are always busy. I love all you do and everything you make.
Bless you so.
Beautiful home. How you do all you do daily. 🤗
God is good. Love you all. ❤
Your children tickle me to no end😅❤❤ great video ❤❤❤
Our 2 favorite things was to cut the bread straight out of the oven and slather it with butter to eat right away. The 2nd was to bake a chocolate devil’s food cake, slather it with butter straight out of the oven, sprinkle it with powdered sugar and eat it right away. Mama always timed it just right so one was ready for our after school snack. Yummy! ❤️🙏
Crunchy is good for garlic bread with spaghetti and machine one for sandwiches because it's soft.
I made bread as a 4-H project many years ago and I loved it. I wish I could find that recipe back!
morning from watertown ny love bread making
Norma here. Nice comparison video. I don’t own a bread maker, but I’m glad you showed how easy it is to make a loaf of homemade sandwich bread. I will definitely give it a try.
So, totally unrelated to bread (though I may look on Amazon to see what bread makers they have 🤷♀️) but whichever of you are doing the intro’s and outro’s to your videos, I LOVE them always! Very artistic and I always love the music you use. Just an FYI! Thank you for sharing!
Stay safe and blessed all! ❤🙏❤
Love homemade bread. Thanks for sharing both ways of making it. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
It looks like what homemade pizza dough looks like. ❤
Lol you are awesome at the video stuff! I want to try so many things since I started watching your videos! 🥰❤😋
Yay! Thank you!
I always loved the freshly made over the bread machine. I gave my bread machine away. 😜
That was fun!❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
I love homemade bread! Unfortunately I can no longer have gluten. So it's one thing I have to say no to. But I could smell in my head the aroma of fresh baked bread! 💖💖💖
oh I love Conner.🥰
Conner was cracking me up, such a character 😂😂
Hi Steph and Buddy 😊🍞
I use my bread machine to knead my bread. I haven’t used it in awhile but this video makes me want to make a loaf now.
When u made the hand made one it requires no oil? I like that. Fresh bread and butter ooooh yum. Reminds me of my mom baking. I was never very good at bread. The heal is the best to start with
I have a bread machine but I haven’t made any in a while. I am going to make some bread in my air fryer, I have some Vermont maple sugar and will use that!
I am going to buy the Emerille 360 French door iven that is a toaster, grills, bakes and is an air fryer! This will save space on my counter, then I can make a bigger loaf of bread!
See what you and Pawpaw started🥴yum
If you want to seal the crack, you can use baking soda and crazy glue to seal it and then file it.
I now want a bread maker lol I buy fresh bread from a lady in my town she makes amazing breads thank you another great video Stephanie
I used to have a bread maker , but the fresh bread was eaten to fast , there is a Funktion of timing , und you wake up to a freshly baked bread , yummy, if you remove the paddle or what’s it called , you don’t have a big tear in it ,enjoy
i had a bread machine one time when my girls were young i had to make bread every day so they can have bread when they came home from school then i started making bread for everyone and i even made pizza dough which was great enjoy it .
Making bread brings me home my Mom made bread. The heal was my favorite with butter. Yum.
