Sicilian Easter Bread

Sat, 18 Apr 2009 16:52:50 -0400

An easy to make, traditional Easter cake that reveals Sicily's Greek religious heritage. Mahlepi or mahleb is a Greek spice found in Greek or Middle Eastern specialty shops or possibly online.

Super Awesome Pretzels

Sat, 18 Apr 2009 16:54:52 -0400

These pretzels are delicious! They remind me of the pretzels sold at the ballpark. I used my regular bread recipe as a base and added the poaching step to give them that lovely, unique pretzel-y flavor. I like to make them with half wheat and half white flour. NOTE: for a sweet topping, bake the pretzels plain; when theyre done, brush with butter and sprinkle them with a cinnamon and sugar mixture (3 parts sugar to 1 part cinnamon) -- posted by Mr. Beetty

Christmas Banana Bread

Tue, 21 Apr 2009 11:01:32 -0400

This is one of my favorite banana breads. I love bananas, but the ones available in the US are not as tasty as the Brazilians, so banana bread is my way of enjoying this fruit. I am not criticizing, it is just that bananas grow all over Brazil, from North to South, so it is just obvious we have better ones there! ;-) -- posted by MillaKette

Crusty Portuguese-American Yeasted Cornbread (No Knead)

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 12:23:27 -0400

An easy no-knead recipe for "pao de milho" is from Nancy Baggett's wonderful new cookbook, Kneadlessly Simple: Fabulous, Fuss-Free, No-Knead Breads". The large, homespun loaf has a mild, go-with-anything flavor and a delightful crusty-chewy top. It has a finer, moister crumb than most cornbreads, the result of the cornmeal being combined with boiling water and turned into a mush first. This simple, seemingly unimportant step makes a big difference in taste, too: Due to chemical changes that occur as the cornmeal begins to cook, the bread is noticeably mellow and sweet, even though no sugar is added. Serve it with meals, along with butter, toast it, or grill it and use in all sorts of hearty meat, cheese, and roasted vegetable sandwiches. This bread is very easy to make, but due to the slow rise, no knead method, you must start this bread a couple of days in advance. -- posted by blucoat

Panettone

Sat, 02 May 2009 02:36:39 -0400

MOIST Panettone dotted with raisins and marzipan. The long rise creates a fermentation giving this bread flavor. This Moist sweet dough stays fresh a long time. Just wrap it snuggled in foil and then plastic wrap. Up to 1 week. Make great french toast and or bread pudding. This is a take off Jim Lahey's dough. he got me to make it! I hope you get to make it as well. So worth it! -- posted by ~Rita~

Emeril Lagasse's Portuguese Sweet Bread

Wed, 06 May 2009 17:45:55 -0400

This is a recipe that has been handed down for generations in Emeril's family. It is his family's favorite bread to have at Easter, but can be made at any time. This recipe makes five small loaves. It is very hands-on, requiring kneading but it works very well. The prep time is for rising. Note: If making for Easter, you can add a colored Easter egg to the top of each loaf during the final rising. You would need 5 colored Easter eggs, one for each loaf. -- posted by LifeIsGood

Artisan Pumpernickel Bread

Sat, 25 Jul 2009 02:39:18 -0400

Baking bread every Sunday has become a tradition in my house. It fills my house with the cozy smell of fresh baked bread, and the act of kneading has become a source of meditation to release the stress of the work week. Needless to say, this recipe isn't for a bread machine. This was one of my best breads so far. I think it's the addition of the mashed potatos that makes this a wonderfully moist elastic bread. Beware of over-kneading this one, you don't want the dough to be too moist, but it will retain a bit of stickiness throughout. -- posted by OwlMonkey

This sweet, and very moist cornbread is served at Coyotes Deli & Grill in Banff and the recipe was printed in Bon Appétit (Nov. 2001). Pine nuts add a surprisingly delicious element. The blue cornmeal makes for a beautiful presentation but it tastes just as delicious with yellow. Toast pinenuts on a cookie sheet at 350°F for 5 minutes. Best served warm. Leftovers, if you have any, make an awesome twist on French toast. -- posted by blucoat

Algerian Khobz El Dar -- Semolina Bread

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 11:41:02 -0400

This is the traditional bread of every home in Algeria, hence it's name which transaltes into English as 'Bread of the House'. Every home has a different version & this particular recipe is from my lovely sister in law 'Um Youcef' ;) Just a word of warning, if you have never made this kind of bread before, you will be shocked at how sticky & hard to work with the dough is. Unlike a regular bread, when your dough is too sticky you may add more flour - here adding more flour or semolina will make things worse...instead add a little water & knead gently with your fingertips . Water will always make the dough come together & away from your hands & the mixing bowl. You can also knead the dough in a KA or similar mixer with a sturdy dough hook. -- posted by Um Safia

Singin' Hinnies - Northumbrian Tea-Time Griddle Cakes/Scones

Wed, 02 Sep 2009 03:04:32 -0400

Served warm and oozing with butter, these fabulous fruity griddlecakes make a great treat for breakfast or afternoon tea. I remember my grandmother making these when I was little; she lived in a very old stone cottage in Northumberland, and made these on a huge cast iron black griddle, or girdle as they were also called! We used to eat them hot from the griddle, with butter in front of a roaring wood fire during the winter months. Singin' hinnies are a type of fried fruit scone or griddle cake, so called as they 'sing' and sizzle whilst cooking. 'Hinny' is a Northern term for endearment used especially to children - my grandmother used to call me "hinny". Similar to singin' hinnies are Northumbrian griddle cakes, also known as Gosforth gridies. If you are making them for a childrens party or at Christmas, put coins that have been briefly boiled, then wrapped in greaseproof paper, in the middle of some of the singin hinnies. -- posted by French Tart

They are called never ending because this makes a HUGE amount of muffins! The batter has to sit overnight in the fridge and can be stored for several weeks in there, so you can have warm muffins everyday! Thanks to my friend Malorie for the recipe...*Update* Since this recipe makes so much I decided to freeze 1/2 the batch and it worked great. Just put cupcake liners in a muffin tin fill as usual, put the tin in the freezer for 1-2 hrs, take out and pop into a freezer bag. When ready to use just put back into the muffin tin, it will take about 5-8 extra minutes to bake! -- posted by Rollin in the Dough!

Cinnamon-Swirl Pumpkin Rolls

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:38:10 -0400

This recipe is from King Arthur Flour and is a delicious fall twist on cinnamon buns. And, they are somewhat healthier because they contain some whole wheat flour (and a vegetable!). The dough is very easy to handle and rises up beautifully. These would also be good with a cream cheese icing. Dough requires a total of at least 2 1/2 hour rising time (if you use liquid milk instead of dry, you may require slightly longer rising time). You can make the dough the day before. Just let them rise for about 30 minutes, wrap them up, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let them rise a bit more and warm up, unwrap and then bake. -- posted by blucoat

Sticky Baked French Toast

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 12:13:49 -0400

This is a delicious pan of french toast that is perfect for brunch. It is refrigerated overnight. I found this recipe at helenjane.com in 2005 and baked it for my family. Thanks Helen Jane, the family enjoyed it and I want to have it archived on the computer since I cannot find it on your site any longer. It has been a while since I last made it and I can't remember how many servings I got out of a pan or the exact prep time. -- posted by Ann 3

Carrot Bread (Yeast) from Martha Stewart

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:16:20 -0400

A no-knead (isn't that great?!) bread from chef Jim Lahey. I saw this made on Martha's show and it was so beautiful! Very crusty but the inside is a soft, beautiful orange from the carrot juice. Just imagine a slice of bright orange bread studded with nuts and fruit, topped with some melty butter... What a great bread for fall. Prep time is so long because it needs to rise for up to 18 hours on the first rise - gotta plan ahead! -- posted by yogi

Almost No-Fat Harvest Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:38:07 -0400

I came up with this recipe one rainy Saturday morning when everyone wanted cinnamon rolls but I didn't want to take the time for "regular" ones. I had purchased a ball of pizza dough at the store so I used that as my dough for the rolls. Worked out GREAT!! This will probably be our Christmas breakfast.....easy and YUMMY!!! I am a "dump cook" so I approximate with measurement. :-) My kids LOVED these!! Would be good with chopped walnuts, but my kids won't eat those very often. I have to call them "super food" to get them to eat ...but only occasionally. :-) -- posted by sconehead

Nutty Yam Bread

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 20:56:01 -0400

We love this recipe! It's light and delicious! I adapted this recipe through trial and error from another bread recipe. This is great for making breakfast muffins or a just as a snack and the sweet potatoes are not overpowering in flavor at all. We hope you love these as much as we do! This recipe makes one loaf and can easily be doubled for 2 loaves. Enjoy! -- posted by HoosierGirl - Chef #663374

Moist Cornbread Muffins

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 13:13:00 -0400

The secret is soaking the cornmeal in the buttermilk overnight (included in prep time). It makes it nice and soft and moist. Enjoy with chili, or butter and honey for dessert. -- posted by Chef #808063

This is an adaptation of recipe 71732 to lower calories, fat and, of course, WW points. I entered all of the ingredients that had points into recipe builder and came up with 2 points per muffin when 25 muffins are made. These muffins are moist and are bursting with flavor.

Christmas Cherry Nut Bread

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 00:59:46 -0500

This is so easy to make as you just put everything, except the cherries, in a bowl and mix it, adding the cherries last. It is so pretty and so good. It is nice with a cup of tea or for giving in a pretty little basket along with some tea. You could put a pretty tea cup in the basket, too. If you like fewer cherries, use the lesser amount; I like more so I use the whole jar. -- posted by Mimi in Maine

Pumpkin Cornbread

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 12:33:05 -0500

This is a recipe that I found at Recipe Girl. They are super cute when baked in Williams-Sonoma's Acorn Cakelet Pan. You really can't taste the pumpkin but you do get a cornbread with a nice fall flavor from the addition of molasses, cinnamon and nutmeg. Give it a try! -- posted by sexymommalucas

Cranberry Cake

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:26:13 -0500

Clients of the company I work for give us fresh cranberries every year at Thanksgiving. this year, I decided to actually DO something with them. I made this cranberry cake several times in one week because we just can't get enough of it. It's sweet with a golden crumb, soft and moist, and dense without being heavy, with juicy explosions of tart cranberries. This is also really easy; it comes together in about 10 minutes. Sometimes, I will cover it in whipped cream, but lately I have been baking it instead with a topping of pecans caramelized in butter and brown sugar. Recipe makes 1 9x13 or 1 10" springform cake -- posted by Jaelini

Popovers

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:38:50 -0500

Based on a recipe from one of my very first cookbooks: The Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking. These are very nice popovers, and go well with prime rib of beef, in which case I substitute the beef fat renderings for the shortening. -- posted by mersaydees
