Bagels, Sourdough (super easy)
Multi Grain Sourdough Bread
Using our favorite sourdough recipe, we added grains and few extra ingredients and came up with an excellent sandwich bread.
Sourdough Bagel
Start with your favorite sourdough that is fed and active. You can make these in one day if you start early enough, but they are best when the dough is allowed to sit overnight. These are easy to customize also!
Cheesy Sourdough Chive Jalapeno Bread
Aunt Bonnie’s (Reble) 12 Grain/Seed Bread
We asked Aunt Bonnie for a good bread recipe when we were in Colorado. She was super sweet and gave us this recipe plus all the ingredients that we needed to make it. While Aunt Bonnie found all the ingredients and Adrian ground everything, we enjoyed spending the afternoon just chatting and being able to be with Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Bill. We then walked back “home” to enjoy the rest of our lazy Sunday.
Chocolate Chip, Cherry, Walnut Bagels
While living in Slovakia, Allan was gone many nights. Often I would go to the office with him, play on the computer a little and just be lazy while he worked in the other room. I found a few bagel recipes that were good, but this is my favorite.
English Muffin Bread
Not quite as good as English Muffins, but a lot less work! This makes great toast. It always bakes up with a flat top, so I only let it rise to the top of the pan.
Over Night Flat Bread
After making a batch of bread dough, we discovered that our oven died. Instead of throwing the dough away, we decided to try making flat bread with it. The bread turned out much better than expected.
We made the dough and let it sit overnight. The first batch of bread (after about 18 hours sitting) was perfect. The second night’s bread was still good but was starting to taste a little strong (sitting close to 32 hours). We recommend letting the dough set no longer than 24 hours.
Chocolate, Cherry, Walnut, No Knead Bread
This easy, no knead bread recipe can be varied in many ways. This is one of our favorites.
This recipe does make a huge loaf of bread. If desired, use all unbleached flour or experiment with your favorite ratio of white and wheat. The finished bread freezes well once completely cooled, but if you prefer to make a smaller loaf, see measurements at the end of the recipe.
Easy No Knead Bread
This is a super easy no knead bread. It needs to sit over night, so plan accordingly.
