This easy pumpkin bread recipe comes together in just a few minutes and can also be made dairy free! It's moist, soft, and just slightly spicy. I also love to wrap the cooled loaf in plastic wrap and store it on the counter for up to four days, slicing off a piece now and then. It stores really well (see the notes section for more on that). Gluten free, dairy free. With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up fast, now is the time to start doing some winter baking. This incredibly easy ...

Apple Quick Bread
I intended to make yeast bread today. I’m a planner, so of course I had it all figured out that I was going to make yeast bread and it was going to be terrific and you were all going to love it and the pictures were going to be excellent, etc, etc. I should stop planning so much. Last week I tried to make yeast bread (you know, the kind that was going to be terrific, etc etc), but for some reason it didn’t rise. It was the worst bread I’ve made in a very long time. Fortunately, I ...
Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls
I’ve been meaning to make gluten free cinnamon rolls for quite some time now. I had a recipe before this, but that one wasn’t as good as I wanted it to be. These ones, however, are sweet, yeasty, and light. And don't let your cinnamon cravings end here! If you want an easy cinnamon bread recipe without all the rolling, try this tasty gluten free monkey bread. Yeast Ingredients: 1 cup warm water 2 tablespoons honey 1 ½ tablespoons yeast Put the water, honey, ...
Monkey Bread
Monkey bread is a messy, delicious, wonderful thing. I'd actually never had monkey bread before, but when I thought about little balls of dough surrounded by cinnamon and butter and sugar, I realized I'd be insane if I didn't make it. My little sisters enjoyed it. I told them that if they ate this bread they'd turn into little monkeys. Unfortunately, they didn't seem to believe me, and the bread was gone in 2 seconds flat. It probably won't last long for you either. Monkey Bread ...

My other cinnamon raisin bread recipe requires a bread-maker. This one, however, can be made without. And it is just as yummy and easy.

Yeast Ingredients: 1 cup warm water 2 tablespoons yeast 2 tablespoons sugar Dry Ingredients: 1 ¾ cup rice flour, plus ½ cup more to be added later ¾ cup cornstarch (or a half and half potato/tapioca starch blend), plus ¼ cup more to be added ...

Gluten-Free “Rye” Bread
Honestly, I hardly remember what rye bread tastes like. So I kind of went by feel here. This bread has a very deep, gourmet flavor. I hope that's what you're looking for. If you end up making this bread, please tell me what you think! Ingredients: Yeast Ingredients: 1 cup warm water 2 tablespoons yeast 2 tablespoons sugar Dry Ingredients: ¾ cup brown rice flour ½ cup teff flour, plus another 5 tablespoons ¼ cup corn flour (or rice flour if you have ...
Gluten Free Multigrain Rolls/Bread
When I made this recipe as rolls, it doubled in size. Same thing for the bread (the bread was on the verge of overflowing). This bread has a melt-in-your mouth, soft consistency. When I was just eating this, I suddenly stopped mid-chew. I remembered that flavor, that consistency... It took me a second to bring it back. Then I remembered a bread a friend of ours used to make. There was always plenty of it, which was good, because we couldn't get enough of it. When we started eating ...
Hamburger Buns
These are good. And you don't need a bread-maker to make them. These can also be used as just plain dinner rolls, just don't make them quite as big. I made these for a gathering with friends yesterday, then put them in the oven to rise. As it turned out, they only got to rise for five minutes before I had to turn the oven on to get them cooked fast. Surprisingly, they still rose very well. If you don't have time to give them 30 minutes to rise, just start cooking them. You won't get as much ...
Sandwich Bread
For quite some time I have been meaning to make a bread that did not require a bread maker. This one came out blog-worthy and delicious: A soft and light sandwich bread that is not at all dry or crumbly. The reason that this would make a good sandwich bread is because, as shown in the below picture, it slices very thin. However, in order to get nice, clean thin slices, cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting. Sandwich Bread Print Prep time 20 mins Cook time 1 ...
How to Proof Yeast
Five easy steps for proofing yeast. 1. Put the warm water, warm milk, or whatever the recipe says to use when proofing the yeast into a bowl. 2. Add the sugar and the yeast, and stir until combined. 3. Place the bowl in a warm, draft-free location and let set for about fifteen minutes. I use my oven for this by turning it to WARM ten minutes ahead of time, then 2 minutes before I put the yeast in, I turn the oven off. 4. When the yeast is foamy and has risen 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch, it is ...
Cinnamon Raisin Yeast Bread
I love what my bread-maker can do for me. I mean, it may be lacking in many places, but it still does the job. When it feels like it, that is. The bread-maker I use is about ten years old. And, poor thing, its age is starting to show. The problems started a few months ago when I plugged in the bread maker only to have it start beeping in a panicked way. Then the numbers went backwards. This problem can be fixed, I found, by turning the bread-maker on and off several times. If this ...
Rosemary Yeast Bread
This bread is quick, easy, and delicious. I've made it several times now, when I don't want to wait for the bread-maker kneading cycle. This is a great recipe if you don't have a bread-maker. There is another variation of this bread that is just a basic sandwich bread, instead of a seasoned bread. I love the way rosemary tastes, but some of my sisters and my Mom are not so keen on the idea! Dry ingredients 1 1/2 cups GF oat flour or rice flour 1 cup potato starch (I use ...
Gluten-Free Yeast Rolls
Of all the ways of making gluten-free bread, I have found the bread maker works the best. I don't know what I would do without it! These rolls, kneaded in the bread maker, nearly double in size. They have that soft, melt-in-your-mouth consistency that everyone remembers in wheat bread. You will notice that they are almost exactly the same recipe as the bread-maker bread, except for the addition of cornstarch instead of potato starch and tapioca starch. I have found that this works better in the ...

Flavorful, Easy Sourdough Starter
Do not be scared away by the long list of directions, I had to make them precise, because one time, I checked on my sourdough starter to see that the lid, (I had the ring on,) had been completely blown off, and sourdough starter was everywhere. These careful directions should stop the same thing from happening to you, but please tell me if anything unexpected happens, I would be pleased to make some changes. The blown-off-lid incident may have been caused by our high elevation, and may not ...
