I would have never thought of putting it in my bread maker!!  What a clever idea

Intriguing idea - how do you get it out though?

Welcome to the family Beth-Bill I assume their are 2 of you?? Beth and Bill sharing the same account? Great idea for the cheesecake. Many of us still have our old beloved bread bakers collecting dust in the closet!

Many of us still have our old beloved bread bakers collecting dust in the closet! 

I recently found out that the belt in mine is toast    Because they no longer make that particular one any more    I now have a nice paper weight collecting dust   

Too bad.....I was wanting to use it to make some low carb bread recipes for the bread machine....sigh

Take note:  If you have one and haven't used it in a while....take it out once in a while and oil the belt to keep it healthy

To get it out of the bread machine, I let it cool down completely (over night sometimes) to room temperature.  Then I tilt the pan sideways in each direction while tapping on the opposite side to loosen the edges.  Then Place a plastic lid (off of any old container) over the exposed end of the cake for support.  Hold the baking pan upside down and slightly twist the blade kneading blade, while supporting the the cake while it slides out of the baking pan.  (My baking pan is teflon and may make it easier to get out.) 

If you remove the cake from the baking pan while it is still warm, it is likely to collapse.  The cake needs to firm up before cutting and serving.

The cake actually tastes better after a day or so when some of the moisture has evaporated.  I keep it in the refrig without a lid for one day and then keep it in the fridge with a lid after that time.

Yes, Beth and Bill, two of us.  My husband has lost about 130 lbs. and is now down below his goal weight.  I lost about 30 lbs to get to my goal.  I has been much easier to change out ways since both of us are do the FTS lifestyle.  Now I have learn just what I can get away with without gaining ....
