Hands-Off Panettone

Our best panettone recipe, adapted from baker Jim Lahey, employs a long rise for a festive and flavorful holiday bread without much work.

Parker House Rolls

This recipe for Parker House rolls produces a golden brown crust, a fluffy interior, and a buttery flavor that makes the buns perfect for any occasion.

Pide With Cheese

Turkish pide is a popular summer snack; this version uses sheep’s-milk cheese.

Barbari Bread (Nan-e Barbari)

This leavened Persian flatbread is at its best when eaten fresh.

Khachapuri for a Crowd

This oversize version of khachapuri, the Georgian cheese-filled bread, is both a time-saver and brilliant way to feed a group.

Perilla Leaf Focaccia

Though perilla look like large mint leaves, they are tender and mild, with notes of sesame. I love using them for salads and in this focaccia.

Oven-Dried-Tomato Stecca

This bread is ideal for deep summer when you’re awash in fresh, local tomatoes.

Raspberry Jam Buns With Crème Fraîche Frosting

These buns employ raspberry jam spread on top of the rolled-out dough so that when you roll it up, the jam is spiraled
throughout the individual buns.

English Muffin Toasting Bread

This yeasty, coarse-textured breakfast loaf makes the best toast ever. Slather it with jam or turn it into an egg sandwich.

Classic English Muffins

These English muffins are cooked entirely on the stovetop rather than baked. It’s helpful to have a griddle for cooking all the muffins simultaneously, but it’s also very doable in batches in a cast-iron skillet.

Saturday White Bread

This recipe is designed for someone who wants to make good, crusty loaves of white bread from start to finish in one day.

Yeasted Scallion and Sesame Bing (羌 饼, Qiāng Bĭng)

Qiāng bǐng is crispy on the outside, fluffy and chewy on the inside, and truly magical when fresh off the stove.

Belgian-Style Yeast Waffles

This classic yeasted recipe produces waffles that are wonderfully crisp outside, and creamy on the inside.

Cocoa Brioche Morning Buns

These chocolaty pastries have the attributes of a gloriously flaky croissant on the top, a sticky bun on the bottom, and a rich chocolate-studded brioche in the middle.

Scandinavian Rye Muffins

Lightly spiced and flavored with caraway seeds and crystals of sea salt, these yeast-bread muffins are satisfying without being heavy.

Classic Kouign-Amann

Small, hand-held kouign-amann are common in North America, but this recipe shows off the other way the classic Breton pastry can be made: as a single 9-inch cake.

Yeasted Beer Bread

This no-knead loaf is made with a combination of whole grain rye and bread flours. Molasses and dark beer add warm notes that enhance the rich flavor of the rye.

肉桂仔Babke

June Edelmuth has become known all over Sydney for this legendary bread. The deliciously dense cinnamon and sugar-swirled babke honors the memory of June's Russian grandmother, Minka.

Pita

If you’ve only ever had dry supermarket pita, this is a different animal entirely: puffed up like a pillow, savory on its own, and ready to scoop up anything you like.

Flatbread With Avocado and Scallion Salsa

Pillowy flatbread is an optimal canvas for buttery avocados and a spicy salsa, but it can also be a vehicle for all kinds of dips and spreads. Just don’t call it avocado toast!
