🍞 6 Breads Worth Making Instead of Buying 🥖...

Ciao Reader!

Once you realize how simple it can be to make really good bread at home, it’s hard to go back to store-bought. Simple ingredients, a beautiful crust, a warm, soft center, and nothing compares to that fresh-baked bread smell filling your entire house!

Make one for Sunday dinner, use it for sandwiches during the week, or tear off a warm piece to dunk into a big bowl of cozy soup. The best!

Here are 6 to try:

​No-Knead Crusty Italian Bread — Our weekly bread! Crusty outside, soft and airy inside, and so simple. This is the loaf I want sitting on our table with just about any Italian meal.

​No-Knead Focaccia — Golden and crisp around the edges, soft and airy inside, with plenty of good olive oil. No kneading required!

​Schiacciata Bread — A rustic Tuscan-style flatbread (focaccia's cousin ;)with a crisp, golden exterior, airy center, and plenty of good olive oil. Perfect for tearing, dipping, or making incredible sandwiches.

​Fast Ciabatta — When you want that rustic, bakery-style bread without waiting all day. Perfect for sandwiches or simply tearing and dipping into olive oil.

​Danish Sourdough — Another weekly staple in our home. Hearty, wholesome, and the kind of bread we love having around for toast, breakfast, and everyday meals.

​Easy Soft Dinner Rolls — Soft, fluffy, warm rolls without an all-day project. Save these for Sunday dinner—or any night that needs a little something extra on the table.

If homemade bread has always intimidated you, pick one and start there! There’s something so satisfying about pulling your own loaf from the oven, and once you realize how simple it can be, you may find yourself making bread every week too.
