I'm an unabashed lover of bread. Well, let me qualify that, I love home made bread. The very act of making the bread, kneading it, watching it as it rises and then the amazing aroma of the baking bread.
However, sometimes, you want home made rolls and don't have time to either let it rise slowly or even feel like kneading the dough.
We're a group of bloggers who are asked to make something with one of our favorite or even not so favorite kitchen helpers, ie: Toaster Ovens, Crockpots, Instant Pots, etc. Honestly, with some of the great recipes other bloggers have posted, I've almost made up my mind that I need more kitchen toys.
How To Bake Bread In A Cuisinart Toaster Oven
I do a 2-3 week menu plan, and use it to plan out shopping trips, and also try to keep track of what is in the freezer, to vary our meals.
On the menu plan the other day was Steak and Salad, and for some reason, just Steak and Salad, isn't quite enough for me. I need a carb to go with it.
Either potatoes or bread. That completes the meal for me. And I was out of potatoes until my next shopping excursion, so I opted to make some bread.
What Can You Cook In A Toaster Oven?
It didn't hurt that I was able to score some bread flour recently, so I felt like I could go ahead and make some of my No Knead Rolls, but with the hot weather, I didn't want to turn on the oven, so I baked them in my little toaster oven. Which fits perfectly with the theme of Multicooker Monday.
I also didn't want to make a full recipe, 6 rolls are more than enough for us. We ate two with our meal, and I had the rest for breakfasts the next few days. They make a great egg and bacon breakfast sandwich, substantial enough for the entire day of working.

Currently working on a cookbook showcasing the recipes from her Danish heritage.Six simple ingredients and 90 minutes are all you need to make this tasty toaster oven bread. It’s tender inside, has a chewy crust, and is great for dunking in soup or sopping up sauces!
Instant Oven™ 18l Air Fryer Toaster Oven
After the success of our small no-knead bread, we’ve been getting lots of requests for more beginner bread recipes. This new offering is adapted from a rapid-rise french bread recipe I found on the old website food.com.
The original recipe made 4 large loaves. So we did some downsizing and lots of test batches to come up with a version that makes just one small loaf of bread.
Texture-wise the bread is similar to the softer “French Bread” you’ll find at many U.S. grocery stores. If you’re looking for a baguette with a shattering thin crust, this recipe is not gonna cut it.

But if you’re in the mood for fresh bread that’s soft with a little chew, simple to customize, and perfectly sized for baking in a toaster oven – you are in the right place. Bonus: it’s great for making Toaster Oven Garlic Bread!
We don’t own a stand mixer so I’ve been learning to knead dough by hand and it hasn’t always gone well. If you struggle with kneading too, here are a few tips that might help.
Put on music. It’s easy to feel like you’ve been kneading forever when really only a few minutes have passed. Listening to music makes it more fun and after about two songs the dough will be smooth and springy.

It’s okay to stop and reset. If things go awry and you’ve got dough coating your hands and the board and maybe there’s even a little in your hair – take a few minutes to let the dough rest. Then come back and try again.
Watch other people knead. This video from King Arthur Baking shows how to use an easy fold-rock-and-roll technique. The kneading part starts around the 5:28 minute mark.
1. Measure 3 tablespoons of the flour into a small bowl and set it to the side. In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 1⅛ cups of flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Pour the water and oil into the bowl with the flour and mix to combine.

2. The dough will be really sticky at this point. Mix in some of the flour that you set aside earlier, a tablespoon at a time, until a soft shaggy dough forms. We usually only need an extra tablespoon to bring everything together. But it’s okay if you need a little more.
3. Lightly dust a cutting board and your hands with flour. Add the dough and knead until it’s smooth and elastic (about 6 to 8 minutes). Sprinkle more of the reserved flour onto the board, as needed to keep the dough from sticking while you knead.
If you find the board is sliding around a lot, dampen a paper towel and squeeze it out well, then spread it out flat and top with the board.For a no-waste solution, I like to use our 9″x12″ silicone trivet (one of my favorite toaster oven accessories). The silicone grabs the board and holds it in place.

To relax the gluten and make the dough easier to shape in the next step you’ll want to let it rest for a bit.
2. Pour a little oil over the dough. Rub the oil around the dough then flip it over and rub the other side too making sure the entire ball is coated with oil.
3. Cover the bowl (I usually just pop the cutting board on top) and let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.

Before you start fussing with the dough, set aside a flour sack towel or plastic wrap if you don’t have any lint-free towels. Then, grab a small-ish sheet pan (if your oven is larger, a quarter sheet pan works well) and line it with a silicone baking mat or lightly rub it with oil.
Now that the dough has rested it’s time to shape it. While we usually make a single loaf, the dough can also be shaped into 5 individual rolls or 2 mini loaves (like the ones we used for these veggie subs). They all take about the same amount of time to bake.
Let the dough rise until it’s almost doubled in size, about 25 to 30 minutes or more depending on how cold your room is.
Toaster Vs. Toaster Oven
1. About 5 minutes before the bread has fully risen, start preheating the toaster oven. Adjust the toaster oven’s cooking rack to the bottom position, select the BAKE setting and heat to 400°F.
Convection Baking: We love to use the convection fan to bake this bread because the bread rises taller and has a better crust. If you’re cooking with a convection toaster oven, keep the temperature the same but check on the bread early.
2. With a sharp knife, clean razor, or a lame, make 3 diagonal slashes across the top of the loaf. These relief cuts are to keep the bread from blowing out in other parts (like near the seam) when it’s expanding in the oven.

3. To help the crust brown and crisp up, we like to spray the dough lightly with water before baking. I have a clean spray bottle that’s just for bread but you can also gently brush the loaf with water instead.
4. Add the dough to the heated toaster oven and bake for 10 minutes. Then carefully rotate the pan. Continue baking until the bread is golden brown, sounds hollow when you tap the bottom and has an internal temperature of 200-210°F, about 10 to 15 minutes more.
5. Once you’ve got your beautiful loaf, transfer it to a wire rack and let the bread cool completely (or for as long as you can stand waiting) before tearing into it!
My Mother's Best, No Knead Peasant Bread Recipe
Fully Preheat The Toaster Oven: Most toaster ovens are designed to signal as ready prior to actually reaching the desired temperature. Preheat the oven for at least 5 to 6 minutes or use an oven thermometer to check the temperature and make sure it has reached 400°F before adding the dough.
Some Ovens Will Brown The Crust More: In our smaller oven the crust was developed and cooked through but it wasn’t browned as much. For a shinier golden brown crust, you can skip the water and try an egg wash instead. Whisk an egg white with 1 tablespoon of water until foamy and then gently brush it over the dough before baking it. (*I did not use a wash for any of the loaves pictured).
You’ll want to eat it within a day or two. After that, the bread gets dried out and hard. While not great for snacking on, stale bread is ideal for making crostini and croutons.
