Whole Grain Breads by Machine or Hand: 200 Delicious, Healthful, Simple Recipes
Recipes ranging from sourdough to coffee with cardomom. The book includes wheat recipes, as well as breads made with spelt and buckwheat. Some recipes mix whole grains (like rye) with white flour – this is because you need the gluten, or the bread won’t rise properly. Instructions are given for making bread in the mixer, a machine, or even by hand.

Freeze Your Doughfor Later
If you don’t want to eat your bread all at once, you can freeze one loaf for later. Let the extra loaf rise once and punch it down. Then wrap it tightly in foil and put it in the freezer. Defrost the loaf in the fridge, place in a prepared pan, and let it rise (the second time). Then bake as usual.
This cookbook includes recipes for bread, biscuits, scones, and much more (because, after all, you might want to eat something with your bread). Each recipe has a full-color photo, so you can see how the finished dish should look.

Whole Wheat and Multigrain Bread Recipes Made with Your Kitchenaid
- Milk and honey whole wheat bread – Moist, tender, and slightly nutty. Milk and honey add richness and a sweet (but not too sweet) flavor.
- Multigrain bread made in the Kitchenaid– Made with honey, oatmeal, and hot cereal mix.
- Honey oatmeal bread – Directly from the Kitchenaid Recipe cookbook (that comes with the mixer). It calls for white flour, but you can use half wheat and half white if you prefer. I’ve cut this in half to make one loaf instead of two.
- Whole grain bread– An unusual recipethat uses cooked cereal, which makes it very light and soft, more like white bread, but nutritious.
Make Your Own Quick Oats
If you don’t have quick cooking oats, but do have the regular kind, just toss them in a blender or minichopper and grind them up for a few seconds.

- Cinnamon raisin bread– I just love cinnamon raisin bread (you think you’re eating cake).
- Challah recipe – Perfect for dipping in honey on the Jewish holidays. If there are any leftovers, they make great French toast.

Bread and Loaf Pans
Bread pans for pullman loaves, french bread, and long sandwich size breads.
You can make simple bread recipes in a standard loaf pan, but if you’re going to branch out into more complicatedrecipes, you’ll need a specialized pan to make it.
French (or Italian) bread won’t come out right unless you use the right pan. The holes let moisture escape, and help you get bread that’s crusty on the outside and soft on the inside.
Most bread pans turn out a loaf that’s quite a bit smaller than the packaged loaf you’d get in a store. This one is long enough to make a full-size sandwich size loaf. It’s non-stick and the sides are straight (rather than angled like most pans), so the bread will fit better in a sandwich bag.
The lid ensures you get a nice, square loaf. The pan is nonstick, and hasa special coating that makes cleanup easy. Just wash it by hand (do not put it in the dishwasher, as thatwill remove the coating). Made in USA.
Kitchenaid Italian Bread Recipes
- Cheesy Italian bread– Romano cheese is baked right into the bread.
- Italian bread– It doesn’t specify this in the recipe, but mix this bread on speed 2.
- Foccacia bread – Tyler Florence’s focaccia recipe.
- Ciabetta bread recipe– Just perfect for sandwiches. You may find yourself finishing the first loaf before the second one comes out of the oven.
