While bakers have been making bread for thousands of years in traditional ovens, new technology has enabled home cooks to easily make delicious bread. The Toastmaster TBR15 is one example of an electric bread maker. The Toastmaster is capable of mixing the ingredients into a perfect dough all by itself, but does need a couple of instructions to get there.

3. Reinsert the bread pan back into the Toastmaster. Push down on the rim until it snaps in place. Fold the handle down and close the lid. Plug the Toastmaster into an electric outlet.

4. Press the "Program" button to select the desired bread product. Press the "Color" to select the desired bread cooking time according to the manual or recipe.
