We bring a layered bread recipe, but to make it to your liking this time we give you homework: you'll have to think about which flavors are your favorites to round off the finish. Are you up for trying it?

You can steam super-fluffy sponge cakes. You can do this either in a pressure cooker or in other utensils designed for steaming. In this case, we will show you how to do it in the WMF Olla Vitalis.

The olive oil brioche I'm bringing you today has nothing to envy from the classic French sweet enriched with butter. In this brioche you'll find all the goodness of the original but with the added benefit of extra virgin olive oil.

If in my last recipe we traveled to the United Kingdom, today we continue there. I couldn't resist presenting the recipe for Scones. Yes, I'm sure you know them — those round rolls originating from Scotland, the little breads usually served alongside the famous tea time.

You know I love sharing recipes from different parts of the world with you, it’s something that drives me crazy. I believe there’s nothing better than getting to know a place through its food and traditions. When we travel, I would dare say I almost prefer going to markets, restaurants, shops, bakeries... more than visiting the place itself! haha. It’s something I really enjoy. Today we’re not going very far, I want to share with you how to make and enjoy an incredible Mallorcan potato coca.

Did you know homemade cookies can last up to a month in perfect condition if you store them properly? That is, as long as you don't get distracted and the little ones (or some older kid in the house... ahem!) don't play mouse and eat them first.

Baking cookies is one of my favorite pleasures. It's easy and also quick, since the dough requires very little mixing and the baking takes little time (about 15 minutes). Kids enjoy it too, you make sure to eat quality ingredients and, if you make them in batches, you have reserves for days.

The brioche is a light, soft bread enriched with butter. It is a French classic. This recipe has a delicious chocolate praline filling with a chocolate decoration and chopped hazelnuts. A delicious sweet to serve with a good coffee at any time.

If there's an easy-to-make bread, it's undoubtedly Irish soda bread. Few ingredients, easy to find, that only need to be mixed, lightly kneaded, and baked. In half an hour of baking we have a delicious bread ready to eat. No waiting, proofing, complicated kneading techniques or anything like that.

The monkey bread recipe (or pan de mono, as we call it here) is pure indulgence. A caramelized, cinnamon-flavored cake built patiently and lovingly, ball by ball. It's definitely worth it, especially when following the wise guidance of Virginia, author of Sweet&Sour, who shares the recipe here.

We know from several people who have already tried it that the oven delivers everything it promises: you’re making irresistible breads! And for those of you looking for ideas to get the most out of it, here are a couple of recipes that, with no fuss, will let you enjoy a great homemade loaf. Let’s get baking!

We couldn’t get to this time of year without the recipe for Hot Cross Buns, those delicious Easter buns filled with raisins and marked with that cross that makes them so recognizable, so pretty and so tempting. The truth is there are many stories surrounding them; Rosa (author of Pemberley Cup&Cakes) tells us some of them — you’ll see how lovely! — and brings us this delicious recipe so you can make them at home too. Happy Holy Week!

Eva, author of Bake-Street, brings us some delicious wholegrain bars. You’ll see how easy they are to make at home and they only require a pinch of patience, nothing more; and the wait will be worth it, because this seeded bread is going to delight you!
