Since bread machines are my specialty, I’ve gathered all my best bread maker recipes in one place for you. No more endless searching for reliable recipes.

I use the bread machine’s DOUGH cycle for kneading, then shape the bread by hand and bake it in a conventional oven. This approach makes these the best bread with a bread machine.

With my recipes, you won’t need your bread machine manual. I’ll guide you step-by-step, covering shaping, pan size, oven temperature, and baking time. You’ll create bread you’re proud to share.

If you’re facing any issues, check the helpful posts at the bottom of the page.

No worries if you don’t have a bread machine or bread maker. Nearly all my recipes have alternate directions for stand mixers or making bread by hand.

Four Reasons These Bread Recipes Will Become Your Favorites

What Am I Doing Wrong?

If you use your bread machine often, you may have noticed issues like dense, tough, short, flat, lopsided, crumbly, or unattractive loaves. When ingredients are dumped in, mixed, and baked in the machine, the results are often less than ideal.

But don’t blame your bread machine—it has no brain. Human intervention is needed to achieve the best results. It’s true. (Sorry if that bursts your bubble.) Professional-quality yeast bread can’t be made from start to finish with just the “START” button.

“Bread machines don’t have a brain to read dough or fingers to judge it.”

Does It Matter What Kind of Bread Machine I Use?

In my book, bread machines are the best kneading machine in town. So, I use them to mix and knead the dough.

  • DOUGH Cycle Needed: My recipes only require a bread machine with a DOUGH cycle. Old or new doesn’t matter, as long as the motor is strong.
  • These Features Not Needed: My method does not require preheat cycles, multiple rest periods, or flour-specific options.
  • Bread Makers vs. Stand Mixers: Bread makers are worth it—they have timers (for convenience) and control the heat during rising. Stand mixers lack these features but are better for large batches (more than 4-5 cups per recipe).

Yes, You Can Make Good Bread with a Bread Machine

  • Simple Recipes: Even beginners can succeed with ease by following my tips.
  • Free Bread Machine Course: Perfect for anyone looking to make share-worthy bread with a bread maker. Highly recommended!


Happy Bakers Speak Up

“Thank you for helping making bread so easy!”ANA

“I’ve made the Ciabatta bread, the french bread and today the buttermilk sandwich bread. They have all come out PERFECT! The recipes are easy to follow and I love that I can weigh the ingredients. My husband couldn’t get enough of the french bread. He told me not to lose the recipe since it was the best I’ve made since I have tried several different recipes and this was by far the best! Thank you!! Can’t wait to try some other of your recipes.” PATTY

“I have had to make all my bread, pizza, and roll doughs in my bread machines all the time now due to time constraints and your recipes have helped me make full use of my machines with good results. It was very helpful to realize I could do the dough in the machines and finish up in my oven, no holes in the bottom of the loaf, yay!!”DIANA R.

  1. I found this page back when it was still 64 recipes. I have since made 14 of them and several of them I have made regularly.

    before I found this page every time I tried to make Dinner Rolls or any Yeast Recipe for that matter it was a total flop. only once since I’ve been using your page has it not turned out and that was because of the Yeast. thank you so much for posting these online.

    1. Thank you for taking the time to write, Jennifer. So glad you’ve enjoyed these recipes.

  2. tracy wineland says:

    I am looking for sourdough hot dog buns (preferably using discard because I have a TON) made in a bread machine.

    1. Hi Tracy,

      The closest recipe I have for that would be my sourdough dinner rolls. You could shape the dough like hotdog buns instead of dinner rolls. However, this is not really an enriched recipe, so the bread is chewy like a sourdough roll, not soft and squishy like the hotdog buns at an American supermarket.

  3. I wish you had a gluten free bread recipe. Thank you for all the info.

    1. Hi Marianne,
      The only bread recipes I have on the website that are gluten-free are these Greek Yogurt Waffles and Cheddar Cheese biscuits. In my opinion, bread machines don’t make gluten-free bread that is good enough to share. Better to use a stand mixer.

  4. Hi there, do you have any recipes for a dark rye bread? Or more specifically, dark rye and walnut? Thank you

    1. Hi Tanisha,
      I only have one recipe for rye bread. You could always add walnuts when your machine beeps for “add-ins.”

  5. Dear Paula,
    I bought my first bread machine I’m 1986. made bread and used timer to have fresh bread in the morning. I bought my second machine in 2012 to use as a mixing and kneading tool. I am 80 years old and use machine to mix dough for .Italian bread (150 year old family recipe), buns, pizza dough, garlic knots and I will be using your recipes to expand my choices.
    Thank you Paula for your wonderful site, recipes and thoughtfulness for your suscribers.

    1. Hi David,

      So nice to hear from you. Thank you for your kind words. Sounds like we are on the same track when it comes to bread machines. I hope you find some new recipes to try although it sounds like you already have a large collection of wonderful recipes. If you ever have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me.

  6. I agree with you 1000000% when it comes to using bread machine as my assistant for mixing and kneading dough – most of the time, it ends there, thank you my bread machine, I’ll take it from here. LOL.

    I read an article about the PROS and CONS of using a bread machine and the only CON listed was “lacks personalization”. Well, the personalization is restored if you take over after kneading – that’s how you take back ownership of your bread / cake / product, am I right? PS Love your website.

    1. Welcome Mickie,

      Thumbs up to everything you said!!

  7. I am a newbie at the bread machine, all the recipes look yummy. Thank you for sharing.

    1. Hi Rebecca,
      Welcome! I love beginners. I hope you fall in love with making bread.

  8. Mike Conrad says:

    Was hoping to find a great carrot bread recipe for my bread machine.

    1. Hi Mike,

      I specialize in yeast breads, so I don’t have any quick bread recipes for the bread machine on my website. So sorry.

  9. How do I get all of these recipes. In one book???

    1. Hi Fiona,
      At the moment, the only way to get these recipes is to print them individually. I have considered making a book but it hasn’t happened yet. Thanks for asking.

  10. Please tell the yeast measurement for bread machine yeast, instant yeast and active dry yeast. I have plenty of instant and active and don’t want to buy more when I know the measurements can be converted

    Is bread machine yeast the same as instant yeast? Some websites say it is. If so why not say so?

    1. Hi Kathleen,
      Nice to hear from you. See this post. And yes, bread machine yeast is the same as instant yeast. When baking one of my recipes, use instant yeast. The amount listed will always refer to instant yeast. Can’t speak for anybody else’s recipes.

  11. Hi Paula, I made your oatmeal with sunflower seed bread the other day. Absolutely wonderful!!! Making another loaf today. I was wondering if you have ever made Peanut Butter Bread. If so, could you post the recipe. Thanks so much. Keep the wonderful bread recipes coming. Love your site. Signed up for your email but haven’t gotten anything yet. Maybe this week.

    1. Hi Lynda,
      I’m so happy you like the oatmeal bread. Thank you for writing. You haven’t gotten anything yet after signing up for my email? I just checked and my records indicate you should have gotten the first letter today. Did you check your junk email?

      Funny you mention the peanut butter bread. I’m working on a 100% whole wheat bread that I decided to add a bit of peanut butter to it on a whim. I thought it mae it so much better. I am not quite ready to publish it but you should see it in the next few weeks. If you want to test it before I publish, just let me know and I’ll send it to you. Write me at paula at saladinajar.com.

  12. Hi Paula, I am so glad to find your site. Your recipes sound wonderful. I buy Rosemary Olive Oil bread at a specialty shop. I would like to be able to make something similar, I have tried a recipe I found online, but it wasn’t very good. I baked it in my machine, so maybe I will try it in the oven. I am also looking for a parmesan oregano bread recipe, I made years ago with my first machine. Thanks for your site.

    1. Hi Karen,

      Great to hear from you and welcome. I have a suggestion. Try my French bread recipe. It’s simple. Add rosemary if you like, or parmesan and oregano. I’m pretty sure it will be a hit for you.

  13. Paula, do you have a recipe for Ezekiel bread in a bread machine?

    1. Hi Mary,

      You are not the first person to ask. When I look at the ingredients in Ezekiel bread, there are so, so many. It doesn’t seem practical to buy all those ingredients for one or two loaves of bread. Most of them are present in minuscule amounts. My recipe for Cracked Wheat-Berry Bread is a simple bread with some whole grains and a great texture. You might give it a look. It’s not Ezekiel bread but easy to make at home and very delicious.

  14. I am looking for a persimmon bread machine recipe… All the searches yielded to oven made recipes. Hopefully, you have experimented on a bread machine and would like to share

    1. Hi Susan,

      I’m curious to try this. Have you made a persimmon bread recipe that you liked? If so, send it over and I’ll convert it for you. Almost any regular bread recipe can be mixed up and kneaded in a bread machine, then baked in the oven. That’s the way I do ALL my bread. If you want to try to convert it yourself, see this post for more help.

      Here’s another thought: I have a wonderful banana yeast bread recipe I make with a bread machine (but I do bake it in the oven for a superior loaf). I wonder if you could substitute persimmons for bananas.

      1. Hi Paula I love your sourdough bread recipe,do you think I could add cheese and jalapeños to it ? If so when would you add them and how much. Thank you
        P.s. please write a book !! 😉

  15. Margie Kaminski says:

    Paula, Do you have a book with these recipes? If not – I would hope you’re thinking about it! Thanks for all the help!

    1. Hi Margie,

      Thanks for your kind words. No book. But I do print them off and keep them in a special box.

    2. Debra Seals says:

      I see others have asked if you have written a book and you responded. You said you have no book. I would be front of the line if you change your mind. Think about it. Thank you.

      1. Thanks, Debra. Maybe someday. 🤔

  16. Hi Paula, do you have a recipe for katsiburry (I have no idea how to spell it, so I hope this will help). Thanks. Org

    1. Hi George,

      I have never heard of “katsiburry.” Google evidently hasn’t heard of it either so I’m at a loss. Can you describe it?

  17. Great share. That’s now in my to-do recipe collection.

    1. Fantastic Lora. Let me know your favorites.

      1. How do you access the bread machine course? I am unable to find a link.
