Hole in bread-maker bread. Help please?

Options
Today I made a loaf in my breadmaker and when I took it out there was a hole where the "blade" had been. I always slice the bread and freeze it and about 5 of the slices were spoiled by the hole. Is there a way around this? Any advice would be appreciated.

    Is this your first time using your bread maker:confused: You are quite correct you do get a hole where the paddle has been, if you don't want a hole I suggest that you put your bread maker on to make the dough, and cook the bread in the oven, lots of people on this board have done this. I hope this helps.

    When the bread has finished kneading and is starting the final rise, flip the dough out of the tin, remove the paddle and flop dough back into the tin.

    I have used my breadmaker quite a few times but usually the paddle finishes up in a place where only one or two slices are affected. Will try your suggestion, many thanks.:T
