    Bread from Around the World

    Take a peek at these homemade bread recipes from around the world --- and you don't even need a stand-mixer to prepare these foreign bread recipes!

    Are you looking for some sweet bread recipes? Then start with Swedish cinnamon buns (Kanelbullar) or St. Lucia buns (Lussekatter)!

    Perhaps a homemade bread to serve with slices of cured meat? Then Tuscan bread (Pane Toscano) is for you.

    A slightly salty bread? Then try the much-loved Pandesal from the Philippines.

    Oh! If you have tons of old bread left, don't throw them away --- instead, make your own breadcrumbs from scratch!
