I bet most of us have been seduced into buying the latest gadget that is new and popular in the market. Sometimes we end up using the gadget and can\u2019t imagine operating in the kitchen without them, while there are other times where we end up storing them at the back of the cupboard and forgetting about them.<\/p>\n<p>The first time we came across this new bread-making device, we couldn\u2019t tell if it would turn out to be a gimmick or if it could really make bread without any complications. Below is our review on the Lekue Bread Maker.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Ql7caE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-286\" src=\"https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review.jpg\" alt=\"Lekue Bread Maker Review\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Ql7caE\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#d21016;border-color:#a80d12;border-radius:5px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 20px;font-size:16px;line-height:32px;border-color:#e0585c;border-radius:5px;text-shadow:none\"> Buy on Amazon<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<h2>Lekue Bread Maker Review<\/h2>\n<p>When you come across the Lekue bread maker for the first time, you\u2019ll find that it has an odd look. The gadget is made using brown silicone and what\u2019s even more intriguing about it is that it actually makes bread in and improved and easier method which is better than the traditional one. You\u2019ll find that it\u2019s the simplicity of the gadget that makes it superb.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, with this product you\u2019ll be having a one-stop shop to making bread. It is easy to operate. You begin with putting all the ingredients in it, mix them up, knead the resulting dough and then let it stay in the bowl\/container to prove. After it has proved for a while, you can knead and prove the dough again or you can just place it directly in the oven so that it can bake.<\/p>\n<h3>Simple Design \u2013 No extra washing up<\/h3>\n<p>The Lekue bread maker has a simple design which looks similar to a collapsible silicone bowl. This is a good thing because it means that you\u2019ll be able to do both the mixing and kneading in it. You\u2019ll also be able to place it on the kitchen scale without any difficulty so that you can weigh your ingredients. You can choose to either use a hand mixer that has a dough hook or simply just knead by hand the traditional way.<\/p>\n<p>The bowl is designed to be very flexible and can easily be folded into the shape of a cocoon while working on your dough. It can also be secured together simply by placing one side through the silt that is found on the other side. This will turn it into a perfect proving basket. You can then cover it with a kitchen towel and place it in a warm area to set.<\/p>\n<h3>Strong Platinum Silicone Construction<\/h3>\n<p>The Lekue bread maker is designed from a strong platinum silicone which is dark brown in colour. You can safely use it in the oven as well as the microwave since it is very sturdy. With the way it\u2019s constructed, it could last for quite a long time.<\/p>\n<p>The gadget can be cleaned easily and since it is flexible, you\u2019ll be able to remove the cooked brad once it is out of the oven.<\/p>\n<h3>Features and Specifications<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Easy to use<\/li>\n<li>Capacity of 600ml<\/li>\n<li>Platinum silicone construction<\/li>\n<li>Has a 10-year manufacturer\u2019s warranty<\/li>\n<li>Microwave and dishwasher safe<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Lekue Bread Maker Reviews from Customers<\/h3>\n<p>Together with our review on the Lekue bread maker, we decided to check the internet for some customer reviews so that we had a general review on what other people had to say regarding the product.<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2Ql7caE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-309\" src=\"https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review-1.jpg\" alt=\"Lekue Bread Maker Review\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.berrygerrybakes.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/Lekue-Bread-Maker-Review-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On Amazon UK, the bread maker has an average rating of 4.4 out of 5 stars and it also has some very positive outlooks. Most of the customers had great experiences when trying to make their bread although they stated that they experienced some difficulty at the beginning, but once they got the grasp of the device it was a smooth sail. The gadget was found to produce great oval shaped crusty loaves of bread. As expected, you might have to try out different recipes before you can come up with the perfect loaf.<\/p>\n<p>There were several negative reviews about the product like it not being suited for baking gluten free products because the shape it makes isn\u2019t really great for forming a decent loaf. There are people who stated that the gadget doesn\u2019t produce a good enough bread like the ones they have previously made using other brands.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Conclusion<\/h4>\n<p>The gadget is not very expensive, it is a fun product to work with and it\u2019s definitely worth a try for someone who doesn\u2019t mind having a free formed bread. The video below is from Lekue themselves (ignore that they\u2019ve mentioned that you are to use baking powder for bread, we actually think that they meant yeast!) so if you\u2019re having difficulty trying to figure out how the gadget can be used.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"L\u00e9ku\u00e9 TV | Bread Maker\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vaqzeT9n0-w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today gimmicks are commonly found in the kitchen.
