bread maker

Loaf-producing kitchen device

A bread maker is a countertop appliance that mixes, kneads, rises, and bakes bread automatically: I threw the ingredients in the bread maker before bed and woke up to fresh bread.

The term also applies to a person who makes bread professionally or as a hobby, though baker is more common for the human sense.
