Seeded Whole Grain Loaf
My husband and I want whole grain bread, but we don’t like the spongy store-bought whole wheat breads. I drastically altered one of my favorite batter bread recipes to create this earthy bread.

Braided Onion-Potato Loaf
Ever wonder why a bread recipe includes mashed potatoes? The potato’s starchy quality absorbs liquid during the kneading stage, and it holds onto that liquid during baking. The bread finishes with a crisp, brown exterior crust and a flavorful, moist interior that helps the bread keep longer. —Joan Ranzini, Waynesboro, Virginia
Onion French Bread Loaves
