I was wondering when using the bread machine to knead the dough. Do you let to go through the whole dough cycle (on my machine 1 hour 30 min) and then do the 60 mintue rise in another bowl?
Hi Michelle,
When using the dough cycle, it takes care of the rises before shaping, so you would not need to rise an additional 60 minutes. You would shape the buns, rise and bake as usual.
If you want to use the machine just to knead, check the manual under the dough setting. It should tell you how long the kneading part of the cycle is, then you can just set your own timer, and remove the dough and rise elsewhere.
Happy Baking!
