Bread, biscuits, muffins, and rollsBread, Biscuits, Muffins, & Rolls

When used alone, the word “bread” usually refers to a loaf of bread made from white flour. Otherwise, there will be a descriptive word added to it, such as “wheat bread,” “potato bread,” “corn bread,” etc.

Of course, in more general terms, “bread” is defined as a staple food made from flour or meal mixed with other dry and liquid ingredients, usually combined with a leavening agent, and kneaded, shaped into loaves, and baked; which would include biscuits, rolls, muffins, waffles, and so on.

For our purposes, I’ll include recipes for preparing dishes made from bread that has already been prepared, while the instructions for preparing the breads, biscuits, muffins, and rolls will be included in subpages.

Recipes Using Bread

Bread Pudding

  • 6 cups dry bread crumbs
  • 6 eggs
  • ¼ cup raisins
  • 5½ cups milk, scalded
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 2 tbsp. butter
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • nutmeg, to taste
  • cinnamon, to taste

Soak the bread crumbs for 5 minutes in scalded milk which has been poured into a baking pan. While the bread is soaking, combine the sugar, salt, eggs, butter, and vanilla in a separate bowl, and mix. Pour this mixture over the soaked bread, and sprinkle nutmeg and cinnamon on top. Bake at 350 F for about 45 minutes, or until firm.
