Bread Machine Models

Some bread machines now come with gluten-free programs that are specifically designed for baking wheat-free bread. While this is definitely a good thing, it isn’t totally necessary. There are other bread machines that can be programmed to make great gluten-free bread. Mostly, since there isn’t gluten in the bread you’re making, the dough won’t be as elastic. When you make bread with gluten, you need to knead the bread a lot to activate the gluten and make the bread flexible. That’s probably the biggest difference between cooking wheat bread and gluten-free bread in a breadmaker. Besides this feature, there are a number of features that one should keep in mind when shopping for a bread machine to bake gluten-free bread.

Here’s a quick run-down of these features: Has Gluten-Free Setting, Is Programmable, Can be Paused, Dough Mode, Can Bake Only, Rapid Bake, Has Double Paddles, Keep Warm After Bake, Warms Ingredients Before Mixing. Don’t miss our bread machine features explained page.

Obviously, these is more to making bread than just the above features, and when shopping for bread machines, you may decide that some features are more important than others. Also, in some cases, information was impossible to get for some bread machines. Use your own best judgement. Now without further ado, here are the bread machines we favor:
