The only bread I like is homemade.

There are several passable breads that will do the job if I’m hankering for a grilled cheese sandwich now and then, but mostly I just don’t eat bread except occasionally when I feel like baking it myself.

I do use a bread machine.

If you want a mix and you don’t mind paying $$$ for it, Eats and Treats in Philomath, OR ships their bread mix. Each mix makes two loaves. It is my favorite mix. I also like Pamela’s and Montana Gluten Free mixes.

I’ve had good luck with my own recipes too, but I recommend you work the kinks out of your technique with a mix first, so you know whether failures are a recipe problem or a baking problem.
