it's really easy. mine came with a few recipies, measuring cup + spoon. put the ingredients in the bread maker in the order they are on the list ( i made the mistake of just slinging it all in the first time - BIG mistake)
then put it on what ever setting it tells you to. and wait for it to beep to say its done. i know it they sound odd but do try banana bread, tomato bread + peanut butter bread! yummy! and i hate sundried tomatoes+peanut butter LOL

ah thanks kacy im going to buy 1 out of my vouchers from surveys.

not sure about peanut butter bread tho :rotfl: thanks for tip

We bake our own now - used to but stopped - then started again when I got a new breadmaker from hubby for birthday. Best loaves ever and miles cheaper - plus much lower salt than in bought bread too!

i know it sounds GROSS but my other half really wanted to try it but very suprisingly we all love it - including my 2 year old whos going through a fussy "phase"!!

defnately worth it if you want fresh bread but havent got / cant find the time / be bothered to do itby hand every other day.

I found that Lidl bread tends to go mouldy really quickly - on some occasions, I've noticed that the bread is mouldy once I've got it home from the shop! Make sure you freeze what you don't need straightaway to avoid this problem.

if i found that the bread had mould on it when i got it home i would have took it straight back and had it changed.

Whats the cheapest NICE bread then?

My fav (supermaket bread) is Warburtons. The plain white med sliced one.

Mostly I buy a freshly sliced organic loaf from the bakers for £1.50.

Bergen!!!!

Make your own!!!

It is the only way you know you are not putting complete rubbish into your system - especially if budgeting is important. Although personally I would just prefer a good loaf of bread instead of worrying about a few pennies.

Do the math, you'd be surprised how expensive that home made bread is! I used to make my own, but it was just too damned expensive when you can get a loaf in Lidl for 35p, and it is perfectly good bread (above poster may want to re-evaluate how they store it)

I've had the Lidl loaf (I'm not at all snobby when it comes to food ) and if you genuinely believe it tastes anywhere near as nice as the stuff that comes out of my breadmaker then I think there must be summat wrong with either your breadmaker or your taste buds.

Plus, of course, there's nowt like that just baked bread smell.

i've just worked it out at the same prices
i only ever have home made bread. the taste and cost is much better than shop bought bread! nothing beats the smell of fresh baked bread. or warm bread straight from the oven, with a bit of proper butter on. yum yum :T
*runs off to bake bread - yummy*

Lidl had one on offer for £25 a week or so ago and there were still some left in my store the other day so maybe worth a look? I've got a Morphy Richards which cost almost twice as much and it's fine but I'm not convinced you have to spend an absolute fortune to get nice-tasting bread - they all seem to use the same principle to me...

Finelady at Waitrose 45p 800g loaf, but of course a Panasonic Breadmaker makes the nicest bread.

Tesco do a lovely in-store baked white loaf in the bakery section. It costs a pound but it is ruddy massive! They always have them in stock and are quite often reduced at the end of the day (well, in Tesco Extra Reading, they do!)

BTW, Mr T has just opened his 9th branch in Reading...
