Amber Waves of Grain: American Breads

Zingerman's Bread Baking Class Online

For most people, the phrase “American bread” conjures up some unfortunate stereotypes: most are bland, wheat bread is dry, and biscuits are just not flaky. In this hands-on class, you’ll taste just how good American breads can be. You’ll learn to make flavorful Michigan Wheat bread, Northern Cornbread, and our classic Bakehouse White. Get plenty of hands-on practice at mixing, kneading, and shaping too. Once you’ve taken this class, you’ll never have to settle for stereotypes again!

You'll leave the BAKE! class with our recipes, the knowledge to recreate them at home, and everything you made in class: two loaves of Michigan Wheat, a pan of Northern Cornbread, and  two loaves of Bakehouse White. 

In-Person: We'll end class with a tasting of what we made and you'll go home with some great coupons.
