Brush the top lightly with melted butter or milk, then sprinkle a few rolled oats on top.
Cover and let rise again for 30–45 minutes, until the dough has risen slightly above the rim of the pan.
Step 6: Bake
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the bread for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
(Optional: Cover with foil after 25 minutes if it browns too quickly.)
Step 7: Cool and serve
Remove the bread from the pan and cool on a wire rack before slicing.
Brush with a little melted butter for a soft, glossy crust.
🍯 Tips & Variations
For extra texture: Add ¼ cup chopped nuts or sunflower seeds to the dough.
For a sweeter version: Use ¼ cup brown sugar instead of honey.
No buttermilk? Make your own by mixing 1 ½ cups milk + 1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.

If your family has a strong preference for hot and spicy foods, you may opt to use 2 Jalapenos instead of the single Jalapeno specified in the recipe below. Conversely, if your family is not fond of Jalapeno peppers, you can always try my standard (non-Jalapeno) Bread Machine Cheese Bread.
As this Jalapeno cheese bread recipe is prepared using a bread machine, it is both simple and convenient to make. I typically spend about 5-10 minutes on preparation, after which the bread machine takes care of the remaining tasks. For your information, Bread Dad provides a printable and "pin-able" recipe at the bottom of the page.
Unplug your bread machine and carefully remove the bread pan.
Pour the milk into the bread pan, followed by the other ingredients, including the diced Jalapeno. Ensure that the bread machine yeast is added last, keeping it separate from the liquid until the machine is activated and the ingredients begin to mix.
Reinsert the bread pan into the bread machine and plug it back in.
Select the appropriate settings (e.g., basic/white bread, 2 lb, and light color) and press the start button.
Once the bread machine has completed the baking process, unplug it. Carefully take out the bread and place it on a cooling rack. Use oven mitts when handling the bread machine container (bread loaf pan) as it will be extremely hot!
After taking out the bread, remember to detach the mixing paddle if it remains stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts since the mixing paddle will also be very hot when removed from the bread machine. Alternatively, you can wait until the bread has completely cooled before removing the mixing paddle.
In our bread machine, the baking duration is approximately 3 hours for a 2-pound loaf at the light color and basic bread settings.
However, baking times may vary between machines, so it is advisable not to be away from home when the bread machine’s “finished” alarm sounds! Your bread machine should display the baking time after you have set the parameters, allowing you to know when to be present in the kitchen to take out the bread.
Before operating your bread machine, it is essential to review the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure effective and safe use. Additionally, some bread machines may function slightly differently, so please...

This recipe is part of Bread Dad’s collection of simple Bread Machine Recipes, which includes banana bread, French bread, and multigrain bread.
When purchasing ingredients for this recipe, ensure that you do not mix up your chili peppers. Jalapenos have a moderate level of heat, while other varieties can be significantly spicier.
To enhance the cheese flavor in your bread, opt for a strongly flavored cheese, such as extra sharp cheddar. A milder cheese may contribute little to no cheese flavor. For optimal results, it is also recommended to use your family's preferred cheese!
If your family enjoys spicier dishes (like my youngest son), consider using two Jalapeno peppers instead of the single diced Jalapeno specified in the recipe.
I diced the entire Jalapeno, including the seeds, when preparing this recipe. If you prefer a milder flavor, you may choose to remove the seeds.
For those interested in cultivating Jalapenos at home, visit Bread Dad’s Grow Your Own Ingredients page for hot pepper seeds and other related items.
Exercise caution when slicing jalapenos, as the juice can cause discomfort if it comes into contact with your eyes or any cuts on your fingers. To mitigate this risk, some individuals prefer to wear plastic kitchen gloves and protective eyewear while handling jalapenos.
Avoid using cold milk, as it can hinder yeast growth and lead to denser bread. Yeast thrives in warm conditions.
I prefer to use whole milk for its enhanced flavor. Nevertheless, you may opt for 2% milk, skim milk, or non-dairy alternatives such as soy milk or oat milk. Choose the milk that aligns best with your family's tastes.
I refrain from using pickled jalapenos as they can impart a subtle vinegary "pickled" flavor to the bread. I recommend opting for fresh jalapenos.
However, it is worth noting that several of our visitors have utilized pickled jalapenos and reported that the bread still turns out well (thank you, Margaret!).
If you decide to use pickled jalapenos, ensure that you drain any excess pickle "juice". Adding more liquid than specified in the recipe may lead to underbaked bread or cause the bread to collapse.
Additionally, here are some valuable tips from our visitors– Carol mentioned, "I discovered that adding the cheese to the bread maker at the start breaks it down too much, and using shredded cheese instead of small diced cheese tends to mask the cheesy flavor. It is crucial that the cheese cubes are small (approximately 1/8 inch). Otherwise, the melting cheese creates large holes in the loaf."

Should you encounter any issues with a bread machine recipe, please ensure that you are adhering to the recipe precisely (for instance, using the correct bread machine settings), measuring the ingredients accurately (such as mistakenly adding a teaspoon when a tablespoon is required), and utilizing the appropriate ingredients (for example, bread machine yeast instead of regular yeast or bread flour instead of all-purpose flour), etc. Avoid improvising with recipes.
If you begin to replace ingredients, you are engaging in experimentation and should not anticipate results that are identical to the recipe provided above. While you may achieve some successes, there is a higher likelihood of encountering disappointments when you start to experiment with recipes.
Be mindful that certain bread recipes may vary slightly depending on the type of bread machine used. Consequently, it is advisable to consult your bread machine manufacturer’s guidelines for basic bread recipes (such as white bread or whole wheat bread) as these are more likely to yield successful results with your specific bread machine.
If your bread machine has not been utilized for an extended period, it is recommended to purchase some NEW bread machine yeast prior to baking your bread. Old yeast may become inactive or lose its effectiveness, resulting in bread that fails to rise adequately. Bread machine yeast may not be effective if it has been stored in your pantry for several years.
Always use oven mitts or gloves when handling a bread machine. The bread pan and the rest of the machine can become extremely hot during the baking process. This indicates that the bread pan and the machine are likely to be very hot when you attempt to remove a baked item from the bread machine and/or bread pan.

Pizza Dough Recipe for a Bread Machine
Creating pizza dough using a bread machine (here’s the Bread Machine I utilize) may initially seem daunting (or perhaps even unfeasible). However, there are several tips that will simplify this process, and I am about to provide you with all the information necessary to become proficient in making pizza dough with a bread machine!
The method of preparing pizza dough in a bread machine requires minimal effort on your part. Simply place the ingredients into the bread machine and retrieve the ideal pizza dough 1.5 hours later. No kneading, no overflowing sink of dishes. Just perfection. Every. Time.
What constitutes the best Pizza Dough?
Classic pizza dough consists solely of finely milled wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt. The quantity of yeast is minimal to facilitate a prolonged, cold fermentation process, which enhances the flavors, allowing them to deepen, mature, and develop complexity. Once the dough is prepared, it is stretched, topped generously, and then baked in a scorching wood-fired oven for 60-90 seconds, resulting in an exquisitely crispy crust.
The brief baking duration prevents excessive moisture loss, ensuring that the pizza remains delectably crispy on the outside while being soft, chewy, and moist on the inside. The ideal combination of flavors, textures, and aromas is what renders authentic pizza a favorite among many.
The goal with the bread machine pizza dough is to replicate a flavor and texture that is comparable to the original. Since the bread machine completes the pizza dough in just 1.5 hours, there are several factors that need to be considered.
How to make this SIMPLE Bread Machine Pizza Dough taste authentic
To achieve a bread machine pizza dough that closely resembles the traditional version, modifications to the original recipe's ingredient list are necessary. These modifications include the incorporation of oil, sugar, and an increase in the quantity of yeast.
YEAST: The increase in yeast quantity is essential to accelerate the rising process, as this pizza dough will not undergo fermentation in the refrigerator for several days; rather, the entire procedure is condensed to 1.5 hours.
OIL: Next, we consider the oil. Baking pizza for an extended period means that the dough has a greater chance of losing moisture, resulting in a crust that can become quite hard. The oil serves to prevent the crust from hardening during the baking process.
You may wish to experiment to find the ideal amount of oil that suits your palate, but a range of 1-4 tablespoons is recommended. If you opt for less than 4 tablespoons, ensure that you compensate with water. Using 4 tablespoons yields a flavor that is very soft and tender, reminiscent of cafeteria-style pizza. Conversely, with 1-2 tablespoons, the crust becomes crispier on the outside while remaining slightly chewy on the inside, which aligns more closely with my personal preference.
SUGAR: Now, let us discuss sugar. Sugar is essential for aiding the crust in browning within the oven and enhancing its flavor through the Maillard reaction (the chemical process responsible for browning and thus a more appealing flavor profile). Additionally, the inclusion of sugar helps to retain moisture in the crust and facilitates a quicker rise of the yeast.
Secrets to Achieving the Ideal Pizza Crust in a Bread Machine
One of the most enchanting aspects of pizza is its crispy crust adorned with leopard-like char marks. This distinctive charring at the base of the pizza is accomplished by baking it at very high temperatures in wood-fired brick ovens. Such extreme heat contributes to the formation of a crispy, non-floppy crust, enabling you to hold a slice without it bending or causing toppings and cheese to fall off.
However, how can we replicate this effect when our home ovens do not retain heat as effectively, especially since opening the oven door results in significant heat loss? There are various techniques we can employ to approximate the authentic experience as closely as possible.
A freshly baked pizza emerging from the oven on a wooden stone. The dough is prepared using a pizza dough recipe in a bread machine.
Increase Heat
To begin with, it is essential to allow the oven to accumulate heat, which will mitigate heat loss each time the oven door is opened. When I first started making pizza, I observed that the pizzas I baked initially took longer to cook compared to those baked later. Additionally, the last pizza I baked exhibited a crispier crust with a more appealing leopard-like pattern on the bottom.
Consequently, I now preheat the oven for one hour at 550°F before baking my first pizza to achieve the best and crispiest crust possible. Preheating the oven approximately 30 minutes before the dough cycle on your bread machine concludes will provide sufficient time to heat the home oven to its maximum temperature.
Once the dough has rested, been stretched, and topped, your oven will be primed to bake the finest pizza that a home oven can produce.
Utilize Stone or Steel for Optimal Crust on Homemade Pizza
Preheating the oven is the initial step to achieving the finest crust on your pizza. Additionally, you can enhance this process by employing either a pizza stone or pizza steel. Both options assist in minimizing heat loss and improving heat retention.
A pizza stone will yield superior results compared to baking the pizza on a baking sheet, while pizza steel will outperform both. Refer to this article by SeriousEats, which elucidates the differences and explains why one option is more effective than the other.
Baking the pizza on a pizza stone or steel ensures that the crust receives an immediate surge of heat upon entering the oven, preventing it from becoming soggy or limp, and instead producing an exceptionally crispy crust with large air pockets. I have been utilizing pizza steel for some time, and since acquiring it, bread machine pizza has become a staple in my regular menu. It is simply too convenient and delicious not to prepare!

Tips for Creating the Best Bread Machine Pizza Dough Ever
Are you ready to begin? Let us delve into some valuable tips for preparing pizza machine bread dough.
Flour: The best pizza is crafted using bread flour, as it results in a crispier exterior, a chewier crumb (due to the higher protein content), and a more authentic flavor.
However, all-purpose flour can also suffice if that is what you have available.
To create a whole wheat crust, I suggest a blend of 75% all-purpose flour and 25% wheat flour.
Add the ingredients for the bread machine pizza dough to the machine in the specified order. Each ingredient interacts in a particular manner with the others, so following the listed order will ensure optimal results.
Preheat your oven with the pizza stone placed inside. This method ensures a perfectly crispy crust!
To achieve a thin crust, stretch the dough thinner and shorten the cooking time by a few minutes. Prefer a thicker crust? Opt for a smaller diameter pizza, increase the baking time by a few minutes, and monitor it closely!
As you can see, mastering this bread maker pizza dough recipe opens up endless possibilities! Now, let us proceed!
Pizza Dough Ingredients
Flour – Using bread flour will yield the best results, although all-purpose flour will still outperform many store-bought pizza dough options.
Salt enhances the flavor of the pizza dough, ensuring a well-balanced taste.
Warm Water – Warmer water accelerates yeast activity, but do not exceed 100°F to avoid killing the yeast, which would render it ineffective. Most bread makers will warm the dough during kneading, so room temperature water is also acceptable.
Granulated Sugar – Sugar contributes flavor to the pizza dough, aids in browning the crust, and helps retain moisture. Honey can be used as a natural substitute for sugar.
Yeast – Both active dry and instant dry yeast are suitable for this dough.
Oil keeps the pizza dough soft and prevents the crust from becoming overly hard during baking. Adding 4 tablespoons, as the recipe suggests, will result in a very soft crust. If you prefer a chewier texture, use only 2 tablespoons and substitute the remaining 2 with warm water.
Add all ingredients to the bread maker in the specified order. Close the lid and select the cycle labeled leavened dough, which usually lasts for 90 minutes.
Process images for incorporating ingredients into the bread machine pizza dough recipe.
Approximately 20 minutes into the dough cycle, assess the texture of the pizza dough. You should observe a smooth, soft ball of dough with all the flour fully mixed in. If the mixture appears too runny, gradually add one or two tablespoons of flour until the desired texture is achieved. Conversely, if the dough seems too thick, add flour by the tablespoon, then resume the dough cycle.

Preheat the oven: 30 minutes prior to the completion of the dough cycle in your bread machine, preheat the oven to 500°F, placing the baking rack in the top third. If available, include the pizza stone or steel to preheat simultaneously.
Divide: After the dough cycle concludes, take the dough ball out of the machine and place it on a lightly floured surface. Divide it into four equal portions.
Shape each of the four pieces into a tight ball by flattening each into a patty and repeatedly folding it in half until further folding is no longer feasible. Then, tuck in the ends to create a ball shape from the homemade pizza dough.
Rest: Allow the dough to rest on a well-floured board or in an oiled baking dish, ensuring ample space for expansion, and cover it with either plastic wrap or a kitchen towel to prevent a skin from forming. Resting the dough will enable the gluten to relax, making it easier to stretch into a pizza.
Shape: generously flour the working surface. Position the dough ball at the center, then using the flat part of your fingers, begin to flatten and stretch the pizza from the center outward, avoiding the outer 1 inch of the pizza. Subsequently, stretch it over the knuckles of your hands to form a 12-inch pizza pie.
Step-by-step instructions for shaping the pizza, transitioning from a pizza dough ball to the fully stretched pizza.
Add your preferred sauce, cheese, and toppings.

Bake in a preheated oven for approximately 7 minutes or until the edges are nicely browned and the cheese in the center is bubbling. Remove from the oven, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.
What Toppings Should I Use on My Bread Maker Pizza Dough?
One of the most enjoyable aspects of pizza is its ability to be tailored to your preferences. You can incorporate any toppings you desire into your bread maker pizza dough, but here are a few suggestions.
Sauce
Desiring a “classic” pizza? Opt for red sauce! I strongly recommend using a high-quality tomato sauce (this serves as the foundation for your pizza, after all).
However, do not restrict yourself solely to tomato sauce. Other pizza sauces include olive oil, pesto, alfredo, or even a white pizza sauce.
Personally, I also enjoy barbecue sauce on my pizza!
In a pinch, a blend of half and half, cream cheese (trust me on this), pressed garlic, and a generous amount of grated parmesan cheese will come to the rescue and create an exceptional white sauce. Be sure to season with salt and pepper to taste as well. Simply use a whisk to combine everything and spread it over the pizza crust before adding the toppings.
Cheese
This pizza dough made in a bread maker can be adorned with a variety of cheese selections! The finest cheeses for pizza are mozzarella, parmesan, and feta cheese. Additionally, for a sharper flavor, you might consider adding gouda or cheddar alongside the mozzarella base. Feel free to mix and match for enhanced taste!
Meat
Meat-topped pizzas are a beloved choice in my household. Here are some suggestions:
Incorporate some delightful vegetables to create a veggie pizza. Suggestions include:
mushrooms
artichokes
onions
peppers
tomatoes
olives
spinach or arugula (to complete the pizza)
pineapple chunks
Herbs
This is your opportunity to be inventive for added flavor. My preferred herbs for pizza are:
sautéed garlic
oregano
basil
pesto (a blend of herbs, nuts, and oil)
Can I Freeze This Recipe?
I prefer to have a few frozen pizzas stored in my freezer for those hectic weeknights. Fortunately, this homemade pizza dough freezes exceptionally well.
To freeze:
Once the dough is prepared, divide it into portions, apply oil generously, and place it in a freezer-safe plastic bag.
Freeze for a maximum of 2 months.
To thaw, leave it in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours, then proceed from step 4 in the recipe.
Scroll to the bottom for the complete recipe with exact ingredient quantities.
Can I make this recipe without a Bread Maker?
Absolutely! You can utilize the same recipe to prepare pizza dough by hand using just a bowl or a stand mixer.
Mix & Knead: To adapt the recipe, simply combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until they form a cohesive mixture. Then, knead the dough for approximately 5-10 minutes, or until it achieves a smooth and slightly tacky texture.
Add oil: Subsequently, incorporate the oil, adding one tablespoon at a time, and knead it into the dough.
Proof: Grease a large bowl and place the dough inside. Cover it with a kitchen towel and allow it to rest in a warm area until it has doubled in size.
Use to create pizzas or calzones.
