Recipes and ideas for making homemade breads and quick breads.


Bread is one of my favorite comfort foods. There’s nothing like the aroma of a freshly baked loaf of bread permeating throughout your house. In my opinion, the taste and texture of a homemade loaf of bread is far superior to a loaf of store bought bread. I love baking a variety of rolls, muffins and quick breads from scratch. Although making bread from scratch takes a bit of time, the results are well worth the effort.

Focaccia bread can be enjoyed on it’s own, sliced in half and made into a sandwich, or used as the basis for a delectable homemade pizza. See the article; Focaccia Bread Three Ways; for a basic focaccia bread recipe. By adding various seasonings and additional ingredients, the basic focaccia recipe can be turned into rosemary focaccia, garlic focaccia or even red onion focaccia. The varieties of focaccia bread you can make with the basic recipe are truly endless.

If you are short on time, the article; Quick Bread Recipes, has recipes for making three easy and delicious varieties of quick breads. Try serving chili cheese cornbread, garlic herb bread or parmesan cheese biscuits at your next lunch or dinner.

For a sweet and spicy treat, see the article Triple Gingerbread Recipe. For a decadent dessert, try serving a slice of the gingerbread on top of a bowl of vanilla ice cream and drizzle it with a bit of caramel sauce - yum!!!
