Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Bread Maker, Model BBCC-X20. Widely regarded as the best machine for making gluten-free bread, the Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Breadmaker bakes a large traditionally-shaped 2 pound loaf. Its dual mixing paddles and strong motor have the power to mix sticky gluten-free dough thoroughly, yet they leave only two small paddle indentations at the bottom of the loaf.
Zojirushi's exclusive Home Made Menu function allows you to customize the knead, rise and baking times. This feature is one of the reasons so many gluten-free bakers prefer the BBCC-X20. Most bread machines provide only pre-programmed baking cycles. Generally, those machines "stir down" (re-mix) the bread after it has risen. While that is the accepted method for making gluten-containing breads, it tends to damage the structure of gluten-free bread, resulting in a dense or fallen loaf. This problem is easily avoided with the Zojirushi BBCC-X20. For making gluten-free breads, Zojirushi recommends using the Home Made Menu cycle with the following settings: Preheat 15 minutes, Knead 20 to 30 minutes, turn OFF Rise 1 and Rise 2, Rise 3 55 minutes, and Bake 55 minutes. A gluten-free bread recipe is included in the user manual, and additional recipes can be found on Zojirushi's website .
With this machine you can make more than just bread. There is a cycle for making dough without baking it, so you can shape the dough into rolls, buns, or pizza crust. You can also use the BBCC-X20 to make cake, jam, sourdough starter and even meatloaf.
Use the 13-hour programmable timer to have fresh baked goods ready when you wake - it has an automatic shut-off system for added safety.
This breadmaker has a durable interior and exterior and a user friendly easy-to-read LCD control panel. An easy-to-follow instruction video, manual, and recipe booklet are included.
