I grew up in Wyoming, and one of my grandmother's treasures was her ancient sourdough starter. Unlike most breads, sourdough relies on a natural fermentation process that brings out unique flavors, a chewy texture, and a thick and crunchy crust.
The Sourdough Bread Machine Cookbook has enabled me to revive those wonderful sourdough memories in my kitchen. This comprehensive guide to cooking sourdough in a machine provides valuable tips on caring for your starter, offers recipes, and explains the use of your bread machine. This is work that the bread has to be kneaded, allowed to rise, and cooked at the right temperature for the right amount of time, but when done right, you have a delight with flavor, aroma, and texture that no other bread can achieve.
Avad Syrio carefully guides the reader through every phase of the dozens of recipes in the book, providing full-color photos of the finished loaves, ingredients, and step-by-step instructions, as well as nutritional facts.
One loaf that I thought was particularly unusual was the Quinoa Sourdough. With this high-protein ingredient, this loaf of bread will be more like a meal. This cookbook is a comprehensive treatise on sourdough cooking, offering delights such as Cheddar Cheese Sourdough, Cinnamon Roll Sourdough, and Low-Carb Sourdough.
This comprehensive guide explores the world of sourdough. If you are a foodie, this is a must-have cookbook.

I’ve bought enough bread books over the years to know that “easy sourdough” is usually a lie... but this one genuinely delivers. What impressed me is how confidently it walks you through every stage, from starter care to loaf troubleshooting, without ever talking down to you.

The real test? I tried one of the more adventurous recipes first... the Roasted Garlic & Herb Sourdough... and it came out with a crisp, golden crust and a soft, chewy interior that tasted like something from an actual bakery. And every recipe I’ve tried since has been just as reliable.

The troubleshooting tips actually solve real problems (like gummy centers or weak rises), and the timing guides take the guesswork out of working with a starter. Even better, you don’t need to hover over the kitchen all day... the whole point is letting the bread machine do the heavy lifting.

If you’re new to sourdough or just want consistent results without a four-hour commitment, this cookbook is the rare one that keeps its promises. I’m officially converted.

A lot of interesting recipes!
I have a bread maker and usually bake from ready-made bread packets. It always turns out well, and it tastes good too, but the ingredient list on the packaging is too long even to call it healthy bread. That's why I bought this book to bake a healthier and better version. The complete story of wild yeast could be described in more detail in the book. I've read more information about it online to gain a better understanding.
The book is extensively stocked with recipes, and because it's a recipe book, I think it deserves five stars, actually, a 4.7, but that rating I can not choose. Now it's time to make my starter yeast and bake my first sourdough bread.

Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced baker, this book makes sourdough approachable, fun, and foolproof. Highly recommended for every bread lover!

This is a useful cookbook for anyone looking to get into making sourdough with a bread machine. It does a decent job of explaining the fundamentals, like how to create and maintain a starter, which is helpful for those new to the process.

There's a good variety of recipes, more than I expected. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. Overall, if you're a beginner and want a straightforward guide to using your bread machine for sourdough, this book is a worthwhile purchase.

I loved how each recipe builds confidence while teaching something new—like handling hydration, timing, and flavor variations. The results are consistently great: soft inside, crisp outside, and full of that classic sourdough tang.

The extra tips and troubleshooting sections are super helpful too, especially if you’re new to working with starters. It’s a practical, easy-to-follow guide that makes homemade sourdough feel totally doable—and honestly, pretty fun.

[Tochi Orji · Rating 2 out of 5]

This cookbook has an array of recipes. I'm particularly curious to try out the banana walnut dessert, though the title is a bit misleading because the recipes actually make no mention of using a bread machine in the making of sourdough loaves. The recipe instructions can be more detailed as well.
Another downside was that most of the recipes did not have pictures, and for those that did, they were a bit pixelated (at least on the kindle version).

[R. Driskill · Rating 5 out of 5]

This cookbook is a game-changer if you want delicious sourdough without all the traditional work. The instructions are clear, easy-to-follow, and written specifically for the bread machine. It walks you through everything, from creating your starter to making perfect, crusty loaves every time. This is highly recommended for beginners—it makes homemade sourdough completely stress-free and delicious.
