Sunbeam Breadmaker
This past weekend I bought a breadmaker at a rummage sale. I was very excited because it is something I’ve wanted for a while. I was glad to get one cheaper than they retail since I wasn’t sure just how much I will use it. I’ve had it less than a week and have already made three loaves and will make my fourth one today.
The Sunbeam breadmaker came with a manual/recipe book. There are several bread, jams, and dough recipes. There is even instructions on how to make pasta using your breadmaker.
The first loaf of bread I made was from a mix, so it was pretty easy. The others were from recipes in the manual. They have all turned out really well. I enjoy the sweet breads more, of course that isn’t surprising to me since I have a huge sweet tooth. In fact, I think the whole set is sweet.
This weekend I will try to make some cinnamon rolls since the manual also includes glazes. It all sounds so delicious. I want to make some dough to use to bake our own hot dog buns. I may never buy bread again. If that does become the case, then this $15 purchase will be well worth it.
The loaves are pretty tall and this breadmaker is about 10 years old. I’m not sure how they have improved over the years. Some breadmakers I believe have a way to make longer loaves instead of tall loaves.
I’m really enjoying my breadmaker so much that if something happens to my current one I will buy one at full price.

[...] two months ago, I bought me a Sunbeam Breadmaker at a rummage sale for $15. I blogged about it at Elementary Chef. The first few loaves I did turned out awesome. Since then I haven’t had the best results. [...]
