FAVORITE OLD FASHIONED GINGERBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch square pan.
• In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the egg, and mix in the molasses.
• In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Blend into the creamed mixture. Stir in the hot water. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan before serving.

DAN'S OLD FASHIONED WHITE BREAD

Steps:

• Pour milk in a heatproof bowl, and gently warm in a microwave oven set on Low until milk is about 100 degrees F (38 degrees C), about 15 seconds. Mix in the sugar and honey, and stir to dissolve. Mix in the yeast, and let stand until the yeast activates and forms a creamy layer on the milk, about 15 minutes.
• Place 4 cups of bread flour and the salt into the mixing bowl of a stand mixer; pour in the yeast mixture, and mix on slow speed with a mixing paddle until thoroughly combined, about 1 minute; dough will be very wet. Add the butter, and mix in the remaining 2 cups of bread flour, or as needed, until the dough begins to gather itself into a ball. Change the fitting from the mixing paddle to a dough hook, and machine-knead the dough until smooth and springy, about 4 minutes.
• Transfer the dough onto a well-floured work surface, and knead until you see the surface of the dough begin to break during folding and kneading. Roll dough into a ball, and place into a lightly floured large bowl. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel, and set into a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Spray 2 9x5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray.
• Punch down the dough, remove to the floured surface, and knead for 2 more minutes; cut the dough in half with a sharp knife. Form the dough into logs, adding more flour if necessary, and place the loaves into the sprayed pans. Cover the pans with a kitchen towel, and place into a warm place to rise until doubled, about 1 more hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the bread loaves into the preheated oven, and turn the heat down to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until the tops are golden brown and the loaves make a hollow sound when thumped, about 25 minutes. Cool the pans on baking racks for about 5 minutes before turning the bread loaves out to finish cooling on racks. Cover the loaves with a kitchen towel as they cool.

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk.
• Mix in remaining ingredients (except milk for brushing the top and poppy seeds). Add enough flour to make a stiff dough.
• Knead on lightly floured surface and let rise in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
• Divide dough into two parts and shape into 20-inch lengths.
• Twist the long rolls together and let rise about 20 minutes.
• Brush the tops with milk and sprinkle with poppy seeds.
• Bake on a greased baking sheet at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes.

OUTRAGEOUS GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. (Make sure your oven is clean or it will smoke!)
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic, stir to coat with the butter, and cook, covered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is very tender. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside until cool enough to handle. Mash the garlic in the butter with a fork. Stir in the Parmesan, parsley, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and place both halves, cut sides up, on a cutting board. Score each half diagonally (don't cut all the way through) in large serving-size pieces. Spoon all of the garlic mixture generously on the cut sides of the bread. Cut each half of the baguette in half crosswise along a score and place the 4 pieces on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
• Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, until the topping is bubbly and starting to brown and the bread is crisp. Transfer to a board, cut in serving pieces along the scores, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve warm.

40-CLOVE GARLIC BREAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a sheet of foil on a small baking sheet and line another baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut ½ inch off the tops of the garlic heads and place on the baking sheet with the foil. Drizzle the garlic with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Place the tops back on each garlic bulb. Bring up the corners of the foil around the garlic, then roll closed to form a tight packet. Place in the oven and roast until the garlic is caramelized, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 30 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Leave the oven on.
• Unwrap the foil packet and squeeze the heads to release the roasted garlic cloves into a medium bowl. Mash with a fork until a thick paste forms (some chunks are okay).
• Add the butter, parsley, oregano, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt and stir to combine.
• Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the bread into 1-inch-thick (2.54 cm) slices, stopping ½ inch (1.24 cm) from the bottom of the loaf to keep intact. Turn the loaf 90° and repeat cutting in the opposite direction.
• Place the loaf on the parchment-lined baking sheet and stuff the mozzarella between the bread slices. Spread the roasted garlic butter over the entire loaf.
• Place the loaf into the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the top of the loaf is golden brown and crispy, 25-30 minutes.
• Remove the loaf from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Grate the Parmesan cheese directly over the top. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
