Has anyone tried to make a dough using this machine? (i.e. pizza dough, bread dough, cake...)

I went on line and got a recipe from a competitor for a 9 or 11 cup food processor. I tried the recipe that called for 4 cups of flour (2 loaves of bread). I may not have followed the recipe steps of adding what when??? It was too much and the processor just couldn't get the dough around the bowl. I put the dough into the bread machine and worked it there and it eventually was worked enough. I tried a 2 cup recipe twice and it made excellent dough both times with about a minutes worth of processing. I have the dough raising for the oven now and it is as nice or nicer than the Kitchen Aide mixer,or the bread machine makes. So yes, for my pizza dough recipe (-2 cups flour) and roll or small bread recipes it will be a snap. I may make up some pre-packaged bags for the freezer to take out and fix in a hurry. I was nervous and kept feeling for any heat from the motor, but nothing.

sure it can ! just put in your ingredients and let it do the mixing for you. Sometimes I make the dough in the machine and bake it in the oven instead of the machine. It's nice to use it that way too, kind of keeps the mess in one place.

To be honest, I haven't attempted kneading dough. I use it mainly to prep vegetables,grate/shred cheese, and mixing liquids.

I am looking for a bread machine that is able to dough for me, after which I take it out for a few hours for fermentation and then put it back into the machine for baking, does the machine have settings for me to do all that without going﻿ through all the cycle at once?

Maybe... I've used a similar food processor to mix bread dough, but if you plan to do that often, I would recommend something more like a Kitchen Aid mixer.

I don't make bread machine bread, I make bread from scratch - however, I see no reason why it won't do a fine job, I've seen those bread machine loaves before and my homemade ones are much, much bigger :)

i haven't yet, but there is a recipe for it in the book that comes with it. the machine buzzes at the different stages so that you could add things or remove the dough at the correct phase.

This is great for pizza dough! I use it in this recipe all the time: http://www.organizeyourselfskinny.com/2012/02/28/how-to-make-homemade-frozen-pizza/

it works GREAT for making pie crust, pizza dough,biscuts,pasta dough, but i would not suggest using it for bread dough.i would use a kitchen aid mixer with a bread hook, or a bread maker.

Yes, there is a cycle for bread dough, which kneads and allows dough to rise, but does not bake. You would only have to form the rolls and bake in your oven. I have not used the cycle on this machine, but did so with my old machine. The work is in the kneading, I think, so it would help.

Yes, just add the flour and eggs or water. Once dough is mixed then it extrudes. It takes about an hour start to finish. I love this machine.

from what I have learned it is probably not strong enough to make bread. So we never used the dough hooks. The beaters work just fine. Do not try a double though as you will be cleaning it off of the walls as the mixer able to mix it but the bowl is not large enough to hold more than one cake mixture.

I love this bread maker for what it was intended, making bread, so with that said, I went through the book that came with it and it mentioned nothing about pasta or pizza. I don't know what it takes to make pasta dough but my wife has made pizza dough dough in it and she just knows when to take the dough out for pizza dough.

In looking at the instruction book...you apparently can mix bread but need the optioinal DOUGH HOOKS "with this the Hand Mixer can also knead yeast bread doughs". I don't have this part.

I have not used the mixer for dough as of yet, , however I did use cookie dough and it seemed to do well using the dough utensils.

not sure if my reply comes too late or not but i use my breadman solely to make gluten free breads. i used the gluten free setting once and never went back to it. depending on the recipe, i use the fruit & nut setting, rapid white or i create my own. i also use it to mix pizza dough because i don't have a food processor. i haven't had any problems with the machine and i've had it for a year. i'm still puzzled at all the reviews that say the machine jumps around on the counter while mixing or the loud noises it makes.

Yes I have and it works well to transfer anything from pizza to cookies to wet dough such as ciabatta bread great product
