There’s nothing quite like fresh homemade bread, and a bread maker makes it easy to enjoy a hot, golden loaf at home with minimal effort. Bread machines allow you to add the ingredients, press a button, and in a few hours, you have a loaf of piping-hot bread. It doesn't stop at white bread, either. Most machines offer settings for wheat bread, whole grain, sweet breads, plus many more, even for non-bread items such as jam. Here in the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen & Cooking Lab, we test kitchen appliances and baking tools throughout the year. One of my most recent tests involved baking over a dozen loaves of bread for stand mixers. I've also tested other baking-related items, such as hand mixers and more. I've been a home baker for as long as I can remember, and over the last decade, I have become increasingly passionate about baking, as I often make my own gluten-free baked goods. To find the best bread makers, I made 30 loaves of bread in seven of the newest and most popular bread makers. I made two different white bread recipes, a cranberry walnut bread and a gluten-free loaf, in each machine. I evaluated each bread maker based on its performance in baking bread and ease of use. I also recruited some staff members to taste-test each loaf of bread and provide feedback on the texture and taste.
