1 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2/3 cup oil
1/3 cup melted butter
2 Tbsp. honey
4 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 cups whole milk

Stir cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together. Add in the rest. Don't over-mix. Pout into greased 9 x 13 pan. Bake 45 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

French bread

Made this for Nana’s birthday. After the first rise I punched it down ...shaped and scored it. After the 2nd rise I made a topping using 2T softened butter, salt, pepper, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. Yummy!

Garlic Cheese Bread

I received this recipe from one of our dear CES missionaries serving in WV when we were first married.  They even came to our wedding reception.  I will always think of Sister Workman when I make this recipe. I took this over to Nana and Papa's last night for spaghetti with Uncle Jim and family.  Everyone loved it.

1 loaf French Bread, sliced lengthwise
1 pound Tillamook cheese, grated (Sis. Workman said any sharp cheese works, so I use sharp cheddar as it is cheaper and more easily found in the stores.)
1 medium jar Mayonnaise
Garlic powder to taste

Mix all ingredients and spread evenly on sliced bread.
Heat in oven (350) until the cheese melts and the mixture begins to bubble.

Carmel Bubble Rolls

My mom always make "monkey bread" for Christmas morning, but we have been using this recipe instead for several years now.  It is so easy because you prepare it the night before and bake it in the morning.  And it tastes super yummy as well!
1 package (1 dozen) frozen dough balls
1 small package cook and serve (not instan!) butterscotch pudding **I have used vanilla in place of butterscotch when I couldn't find butterscotch.  It's a bit sweeter, but works fine.  Just make sure it is the cook and serve kind.
1/4 cup chopped pecans, optional
1 stick butter/margarine, melted
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
Place frozen dough balls in greased bundt pan.  Pour melted butter/margarine over rolls.  Combine remaining ingredients and sprinkle over rolls.  Cover with cloth and let rise overnight.  Bake at 325° for 20-30 minutes.  Turn onto plate while still warm.  (If you wait until they cool, they will stick to your pan, so I just turn it onto the plate right after I take it out of the oven.)

Nana's Pizza Dough

(taken from the Cuisinart food processor recipe booklet, but recipe works in any food processor!)

1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1 1/3 cups warm water
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3 teaspoons oil
3 tablespoons cornmeal for pan
vegetable oil for pan

Stir yeast and sugar into warm water and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.  Insert metal blade, put flour and salt in work bowl and turn on machine.  Pour yeast mixture through feed tube and process about 45 seconds, until dough pulls away from sides of bowl.  Add oil through feed tube and process 60 seconds longer. 
If dough sticks to sides of bowl, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, processing for 10 seconds after each addition, until dough leaves sides of bowl but remains soft.

Roll dough onto oiled surface.  Bake at 425 for 2 minutes. Remove and add toppings.  Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and cheese is melted.

Just like Olive Garden Breadsticks

Had pinned this recipe on Pinterest and made them yesterday to go along with my Creamy Potato Soup. They are very good and pretty quick and easy to make.  Found the recipe on Readable Eatables blog. To see the original posting click here.

Dough:
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 Tbs sugar
1 Tbs yeast
1 Tbs salt (yes, the recipe calls for 1 Tablespoon, which I use every time and they turn out great.)
2 Tbs butter, softened
4-5 Cups flour

Topping:
3 Tbs butter melted
sea salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder

For the dough, pour the water into a stand mixer with the sugar and yeast, let that sit and froth for about 10 minutes. Add salt, butter, and 2 cups of flour. Mix the dough on low. Add the rest of the flour a half cup at a time, until dough scrapes the sides of the bowl clean. Mix the dough about 5 minutes on medium speed, until its soft and easy to work with. Roll the dough out into a long log, spray a knife with cooking spray and cut the dough into 12-14 pieces. Roll those pieces into about 6 inch long snakes. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with cooking spray, and lay the breadsticks out leaving about 2 inches between each one. Place them in the oven with the temperature turned to 170 degrees. Let them rise for about 15 minutes, or until doubled in size.( I have also let them sit at room temp until they are doubled in size and then bake them in the oven) Once risen, brush them with the 1 1/2 T of melted butter and sprinkle them with salt. Now preheat the oven to 400 degrees and bake them for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. While they are baking combine the rest of the melted butter with 1/4 t garlic powder. When the breadsticks are golden brown, remove them from the oven and brush them with the butter/garlic mixture.

Bread

I know a lot of us make homemade bread, but a while ago I made a post on one of my blogs on how I make mine.  It shows each step with pictures, so I thought I would link it here as well. Click here.
Also wanted to mention that we use this recipe for pepperoni rolls (roll some dough out, add pepperoni and mozzarella cheese and roll up and bake), cinnamon rolls, or you can add other types of seasonings for different types of bread. It is just a basic dough that works great.
