Has anyone baked bread? Does bread brown in this oven (or rolls or muffins)? Thanks.

have made rolls in it they worked out fine. Need just a little longer to bake and brown than regular oven

Yes it does brown. I have also cooked a pie. Takes longer if not real hot outside.

Bread does brown, just not quite as much as when using a conventional oven.

I forgot to add that I brushed the top of bread with beaten egg whits for a darker brown color.

Adam, I've had my machine for several years now and have just reached the point where I can whip out a couple loaves of French bread or 1 dozen French rolls so fast it's amazing. One of the secrets is to get the French bread pans they sell on here with the holes in them. There are 2 and 3 loaf pans available. I'm very comfortable with the 2 loaf pans. Here's the recipe I'm using currently for both loaves and rolls: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/French-Bread-Rolls-to-Die-For/Detail.aspx The recipe is so easy I could do it in my sleep. I don't bother getting bread flour. Do add the last two cups of flour a bit at a time and let the machine knead for 6 to 8 minutes. The rolls also make a very special hamburger roll if you top off with sesame seeds after doing the egg white glaze. Believe me when I tell you your friends and associates will be amazed at your bread baking skills. There are dozens of other great bread recipes available though the link and also on Recipezarr.com. Don't forget to order the bread pans. They really will make your baking much simpler and easy!

I think most bread machines work that way. That, and liking a crisper crust are reasons I bake my bread in a standard oven.

I've made the whole wheat twice and it has come out burnt on the outside twice. I wonder if I have a faulty machine. The other breads I made (which allow you to adjust the crust) turned out fine. With whole wheat setting it doesn't allow one to choose a crust... advice?

Browning is amazing without burning or drying out. I have not tackled biscuits and bread. I saw someone say they make toast in it. I am sure you would be able to and sharper image makes bake wear for the unit. The one thing to remember is that you still have to tend to the food cooking. No device works well if you set it and forget it. Sometimes I turn down the set cooking temps and increase the time.

I have used the oven section for toasting bagels,warming pastries,making toast and baking cookies and pizza.The oven may brown okay but I've never tried it yet.

This dish bakes MARVELOUSLY, however I wouldn't try it for bread. The glass doesn't "spread" the heat the way metal pans do. I bake bread quite often, but I'd be afraid the bread wouldn't rise properly. IF, you do use it to bake a loaf, please let me know how it turns out. Pj

I had not had that problem. I use this pan for baking cornbread and cakes and they do brown on the bottom. Also the sides are vertical not slanted as so many pans are these days. Hope this helps.

Depends on how you like them. I usually take the toast out the first time, and leave the dogs in for a second round in the toaster. My buns are always toated, they may not be colored brown, but the inside of the bun gets hard and crispy on the top layer. Overall, I am satisfied!

Hi Alice. I baked my first loaf as the directions showed with the least expensive store bought box I could find. It came out fine, smelled wonderful, and I hated to throw it out. I cleaned the machine and it has worked like a charm ever since. Enjoy your machine, it's the best!

We don't have the bread mix to look at right now, but we do have the artisan flour blend mix from Pamela's. It does have a brownie recipe on the back, along with several other recipes. Hope this helps

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.

No, it doesn't. And when I baked, the knobs got all brown. It also came damaged; the little plastic feet at the bottom were broken off and jagged and there was a big dent. Called and spoke to Mike who said he's send replacement parts and never did. I didn't follow up because I moved and left it in the apartment.

I just made bread this week....I have never had to worry about it moving. I love this machine. I have also made an extra large batch of cookies....no problem with any movement.
