Bread Recipes

Whether you bake for fun, therapy, or because it just tastes better when it’s homemade, you’ll love this collection of homemade breads, rolls, biscuits, quick breads, and muffins. Start with the easiest 3-Ingredient Homemade Biscuits and slather them with butter, honey, or Homemade Orange Marmalade.

If you’re excited to bake with yeast, you won’t want to miss my Soft Yeast Dinner Rolls, Homemade Crescent Rolls, Challah, Focaccia, and No-Knead Bread. They are all great recipes for beginning and accomplished bakers alike. For those who need a little hand-holding, my tutorials on How to Activate Yeast and How to Proof Dough can be very helpful. For any recipes that require Scalded Milk or Buttermilk, I have tutorials for those, too.

Unlike yeast breads, quick breads (made in loaf pans) and muffins are made without yeast. Recipes like Banana Bread, Cornbread, Blueberry Muffins, Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins, Lemon Yogurt Cake, and Coffee Cake Muffins are all examples of quick breads.

We also file an assortment of breakfast recipes under “Breads” because they are flour-forward and often include leavening agents. Homemade Pancakes, Classic Waffles, Baked French Toast, Apple Cider Donuts, Buttermilk Biscuits (which are the basis of an epic Biscuits and Gravy recipe), and Homemade Cinnamon Rolls are all delicious options for your next lazy weekend or festive Brunch.
