Get
out your flour and your mixer, start your oven, and bake!
Try
a recipe or two for making homemade bread. Here is a simple
recipe that can be varied by using different sorts of flour or
butter, oil, or margarine.
Here
is a recipe for a heartier bread—but notice that the recipe makes
SIX LOAVES! You might want to cut that recipe way down!
And
here is a recipe for homemade cinnamon bread. Yum!
Remember,
all of these breads need active dry yeast—which works best when it
is fairly fresh—and a whole lot of time to rise. If you want to
make homemade bread that doesn't take so long, try a no-yeast recipe
like banana bread, soda bread, or corn bread. There are a variety of
quick bread recipes here.
