Do you have to use bread flour in the bread machine? I just got one last week and the bread flour is 4.99 a bag.....thats kind of expensive I thought. So I wondered if you have to use that or can you use normal flour?

Thank you :)

bread flour has more gluten then regular flour so it helps make the bread taste better. but in a pinch regular flour should work.

Oh ok thank you, I wondered if there was something different about it, or just some way to make extra money, marketing another brand lol.

you will notice a difference in the bread. You don't have to get bread machine flour bread flour is just fine. When i had my bread machine I noticed a difference in the bread and the ones made with bread flour tasted different.
