This is not a a review, more of a request for help I cannot knead by hand, I have a small bread machine. can I supplement, ie. alter the recipes for bread by doing the mix in my bread machine... on the dough mix, and then take out and finish off in my electric oven please?

Many people find they are unable to knead by hand. By all means get a machine to do the work for you if this helps! Use a dough hook on a kitchen mixer, or knead the dough in a bread machine before shaping by hand to pop into the oven.
