Cooking can be fun, even calming. But for those who aren’t experienced cooks or who have trouble coming up with a consistent mix of great meal ideas, a little assistance is appreciated. You can get that with the Breville+ app, a comprehensive mobile app to use alongside compatible Breville appliances. Enhance your culinary skills, get inspired, and learn about the small appliances you’re using and the dishes you’re whipping up.
How to use the Breville+ app
To get started with the Breville+ app, you first need a compatible Breville appliance—a wonderful addition to any kitchen. These include a range of Breville ovens, air fryers, and even a sous vide machine. Then, simply download the app and add your appliance.
What will you find in the Breville+ app?
The Breville+ app, available through both the Google Play and Apple App Store, includes three main components: guided recipes, cook guides, and live and on-demand classes.
Guided recipes
The Breville+ app offers more than 1,000 guided recipes from leading food content experts, including Breville’s own Test Kitchen as well as sources like America’s Test Kitchen, ChefSteps, New York Times Cooking, Serious Eats, Williams Sonoma Test Kitchen, and Sur La Table. The recipes cover a wide range of dishes, from succulent honey mustard chicken thighs to bite-off-the-bone air-fried Korean chicken wings and indulgently crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside chocolate chip cookies.
The instructions are specific to Breville appliances, and the chefs making them are using the same appliances you’re using at home. The recipes are also curated for daily and seasonal inspiration, so you’ll find perfect dishes to cook around the holiday season, or side dishes that will make your summer barbecue a hit.
Get inspired to make Bananas Foster Crème Brûlée with chef Eric Adjepiong in the Breville Joule Oven, or try your hand at miso salmon or air-fried parmesan broccoli with lemon aioli in a Breville smart oven. Did you know you can make a sous vide burger? With the right guidance, you can! Is your mouth watering yet?
My cook guides
The app also includes handy cook guides to help make sure you’re using the right cook settings on the appliance you own for perfect results every time. There are shortcut instructions for favourite and commonly used ingredients. Tell the app what you want to cook and it will advise of the right time, temperature, and setting to cook each item in the Breville appliance you own.
Once again, the instructions are tailored to the specific appliance and based on detailed tests. So rather than follow a standard recipe guide, you’re following a guide that has been adjusted to suit the exact make and model, leaving no variable unaccounted for.
Live and on-demand classes
Need more than step-by-step written instructions? There are live and on-demand classes hosted through the app. These include not only step-by-step directions for recipes but also the basics, like set-up and maintenance of the appliance. You can also learn about the fundamentals of cooking and baking, like what it means to proof dough before baking and why you do it, or the basics of broiling. The idea is to help you get the most out of the appliance, gain inspiration, and learn new things. Some of the courses I think are likely to be popular among downloaders and Breville appliance owners include Intro to Air Frying and Secrets to Stunning Pizza.
