Simple Homemade Bread Recipe (by hand or bread machine)

Last updated on: June 13, 2022 By Kaylene Filed Under: Breads, Recipes 6 Comments

Loaf of white bread on a wooden cutting board with some slices cut.

You just can’t beat freshly baked homemade bread. This easy bread recipe is great for beginners and experienced bakers alike. It only requires 6 ingredients, and you can adapt it to make a variety of loaves! I shared this recipe over nine years ago, so I think it’s about time I update it! When I first published this recipe, I was only making bread on and off. More recently though I have stopped buying bread and I use this recipe to make my own. That’s because everyone in my family prefers … [Read more...]

Delicious Mini Hot Cross Buns

Last updated on: March 31, 2021 By Kaylene Filed Under: Breads, Easter, Holidays & Special Occasions, Recipes Leave a Comment

Buns are shown still joined together on baking paper and on a cooling rack.

The whole family will love these soft and fluffy Mini Hot Cross Buns fresh from the oven! They are so hard to resist with their delicious fruitiness and yummy spices. In the past I have never been a big fan of hot cross buns; or fruit buns of any description actually! I’m not sure why I didn’t like them, but as I’ve grown older, I’ve come to appreciate their fruitiness and the yummy spices. Mostly I love homemade hot cross buns. The store-bought ones are okay but homemade is so much better. … [Read more...]

Easter Inspired Fruit Loaf

This fruit loaf is wonderful fresh or you can enjoy it toasted for breakfast! thelinkssite.com

This Easter inspired fruit loaf recipe will have you enjoying the yummy sweet taste of homemade hot cross buns all year round! I actually find it strange that I am sharing a recipe for a fruit loaf, because frankly I haven’t been a fan of fruit buns or loaves for some time. I remember enjoying yummy, pink icing covered, fruit buns from the bakery when I was a kid but I haven’t had one like that for years. They just don’t seem to make them as good as they used to, I haven’t eaten a hot cross … [Read more...]

Cheesy Garlic and Herb Pull Apart Bread

Last updated on: May 7, 2025 By Kaylene Filed Under: Appetizers, Breads, Recipes Leave a Comment

Cheesy garlic and herb pull apart bread loaf on a black cooling rack. A brown and green tiled splashback is seen in the background.

This is a recipe for garlic and herb pull apart bread that I just can’t keep all to myself. It is easy to make, great for sharing and is deliciously cheesy and garlicky! I think that everyone will agree with me that pizza and pasta dishes can be complemented perfectly with garlic bread. Soft warm bread with rich garlic flavour is something that is great as an entree, on the side, or simply just for mopping up the delightful juices that are too tasty to waste. Until now, my usual method for … [Read more...]
