National Homemade Bread Day

National Homemade Bread Day falls on November 17, just in time to share your creations with others in the upcoming holidays. Making your own bread at home is not only an enjoyable skill to learn, but it also lets you control what ingredients you consume. Store-bought breads often contain additives, which you can avoid by making it yourself. You can also learn to make breads that fit within certain dietary restrictions, like gluten-free breads.

Library card holders have access to various bread making cookbooks to help you mix, knead, and bake your way to homemade deliciousness.
