When I’m teaching, my days are long, busy, and there isn’t really time to bake bread…or at least I didn’t think there was…till I read Make Ahead Bread.
With Make Ahead Bread I now know I can make bread and enjoy the yeasty scent of baking bread any time I want to. Make Ahead Bread includes 100 recipes for bread that can be mixed up one day, left to rise overnight, and baked the next. Approached this way, just about anyone can have fresh home baked bread any time they want it.
Loaf breads, buns, rolls, breadsticks, pastries, flat breads, even tortillas, they’re all in this wonderful book.
What’s even better is the way the recipes are organized on the page. This part is genius! Each recipe features a description of the recipe and an ingredient list. The preparation instructions are broken down into prep day tasks and bake day tasks so it is very easy to see what to do, when to do it, how and where to let the bread rise, when to shape it, and so on.
Make Ahead Bread isn’t just for simple, plain, loaves. This cookbook includes make ahead recipes for:
Sticky Buns
Almond Rolls
Nutella Swirl Rolls
Garlic Knots
Kaiser Rolls
Sider Buns
Hamburger And Hot Dog buns
Buttermilk Rolls
Honey Potato Buns
Sweet Butter Buns
Par-baked White Rolls
Pumpkin Dinner Rolls
Almond Sweet Bread
Baguettes
Sesame-Seeded Semolina Bread
Sauerkraut Rye Bread
White, Whole Wheat, & Rye Bread
Rich Egg & Butter Loaf
Sourdough Rye Bread
And many more….
If you enjoy baking bread but find yourself limited because you work or have other obligations this book needs to be in your cookbook library. This is one of my all-time favorite cookbooks.
