In response to your requests for recipes for the bread and muffins served at breakfast, here you go......
For all recipes, I suggest using organic ingredients whenever possible. Also, you’ll notice that there is no salt listed for any of the recipes. I feel that there’s already enough “hidden” salt in my diet, so I don’t add it when cooking or baking and everything seems to work fine without it. If you’re used to store bought products however, you’ll probably notice a difference in the taste. I just think this is fairly painless way to cut back on salt intake - after all, you will probably end up putting something on top of the bread which will hide the slight taste difference anyway.
Be sure to let me know how you make out and of course I would love to hear about your personal touches.
Check back here often, as I will be adding more recipes as I have time.
Recipes
Bread making at home without the aid of a bread maker is often thought to be difficult and time consuming, and while I would love to just smile silently and soak up all your praise for my “hard work”, I have to admit that it’s really pretty easy and doesn’t have to take all that long. The big trick is to use “instant” or “quick” yeast. It’s much easier to add in and cuts down total time considerably. Some may think it’s cheating or “something” is lost by doing it this way, but if you’re reading this, then you’ve probably already tasted the end result, and here because you liked it and are interested in duplicating it at home. Ok then, let’s get to it :)

In addition to yeast breads, muffins and quick breads make a nice addition to breakfast and snacks. Here are some of my favourites.
