Bread no. 31 : no knead bread. Adjustments : I swapped a half cup of wheat flour for the white the recipe called for. Notes : I have been meaning to try this one out for awhile; it was all over the place shortly after it ran in the NY Times. The instructions involve a…
-
Bread no. 30 : batter bread. Adjustments : none, except this was mixed by hand, not a mixer. Notes : the broken oven at my new place definitely put a kink in the long-shot that was finishing my 40 loaves in 2011. But being at the parents' means I am able to get in a…
-
Bread no. 29 : apple cinnamon bread Adjustments : the recipe made enough for two loaves, so I cut it down to make just one. Substituted about half the flour for wheat, skipped the streusel (which I am sure is fantastic, but I am always on a mission to cut sugar) and used fresh OJ…
-
Bread no. 28 : rosemary olive oil bread Adjustments : nothing – though I ended up adding a lot of extra flour to get the right consistency and I cooked this on a regular baking tray, not a stone because we didn't have one at my parent's house. Notes : this was our Thanksgiving day…
-
Bread no. 27 : easy little bread. Adjustments : nada, followed this one exactly. Notes : I decided to bake some bread the other day when I was already hungry for dinner. I went to pinterest and typed in "easy bread" and this is what popped up. It was certainly quick to make but because…

Bread no. 26 : soft pretzel tots. Adjustments : cut this recipe in half. True, I have the parents to share with, but it's becoming carb-central around here. Substituted 3/4 C whole wheat flour for white. Went a bit overboard on the salt. Notes : since my 40 loaves deadline is looming, I was happy…
-
Bread no. 25 : pumpkin pull-apart bread Adjustments : substituted 1 C of the bread flour with wheat flour & ended up adding about 3/4 C extra flour to get the dough to the correct consistency. As a part of my endless effort to consume less sugar, I used half of the sugar that the…
-
Bread no. 24 : nutella pumpkin bread Adjustments : I halved the recipe & cooked in a 9×5 bread pan. I also reduced the sugar by about a third, substitued about half the white flour for whole wheat and added a bit more pumpkin. Notes : super easy. I ended up baking mine for about…
-
Bread no. 23 : parmesan zucchini bread. Adjustments : per usual, I halved the recipe. Notes : mine turned out a little too moist. At least, I think so. I have never had zucchini bread before and am not sure what the texture should be. I think this is because I used a little too…
-
Bread no. 22 : garlic knots. (recipe below) Adjustments : when I set out to make these, I was going to follow this recipe. But when I read it and realized the base was pizza dough, I just used my own dough recipe (it's super similar) and then missed the part about how you were…
