The Nesting Place is having a Wreath Party! What's a wreath party? It's a bloggy thing where everyone links to their own homemade, handmade wreaths. So I'm in. Yesterday I did some baking and came up with these bread wreaths. I'm going to fiddle around with making some more in the days to come leading up to Christmas so I can get it perfected. Wouldn't these make nice gifts or pretty breads for the holidays?
I made my wreaths out of a French Bread recipe and then did the fancy cutting using this tutorial at Kitchen Mage. You could use any bread dough you like -- even frozen bread dough would work for this. The main thing is to roll the dough into a nice rope and then stick it together. Let it rise for about 30-40 minutes and then do the snipping with a scissors, just before baking. Hang it up with a ribbon if you want to or just tear off a little "leaf" and eat it up!
How deliciously creative! Must make these - don't think they will last long enough to hang up though! ;)
ReplyDeleteThankful for Nester having this wonderful party so we could meet talented new bloggy friends.

Now that's a wreath to sink your teeth into! :0)
ReplyDeleteWhat a completely adorable wreath ~ I love it! So yummy.
ReplyDeleteHave a Happy Labor Day.
You're a good bread baker, Jody! How did it taste?
ReplyDeleteIt looks great -- I'm with Pom Pom -- how did it taste?
ReplyDeleteThat's definitely the most delicious-looking wreath I've seen at Nester's party!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your encouraging comments. Pom Pom and Thimbleanna....I had a chunk of the bread wreath today and it tastes like French Bread. A bit chewy, but still good. It would be especially good dipped in spaghetti sauce!

I've been waiting to see what everyone comes up with for the wreaths. I never thought of a bread dough wreath!
ReplyDeleteThose wreaths are so pretty. Glad my how-to could help.
ReplyDeleteI really like a little chew to my bread! These wreaths fit you to a "t."
ReplyDeleteYou wreath looks wonderful!! I love the idea of using bread--and being able to actually eat it, or just use it as decor!!
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Thanks for sharing such a fun, and yummy idea :)
