This hearty vegan chili is loaded with black beans, kidney beans, and sweet corn, with spicy jalapeños and smoky chipotle peppers adding bold flavor to every spoonful.

This tasty no-knead bread can be baked as a traditional boule (ball shape)—or shaped with a well in the center to create a bread bowl for your favorite dip (see tip, below). A blend of whole wheat and all-purpose flours hits the sweet spot between wholesome and tender, and cooked potato keeps every slice of […]
Pretzel bites may just be one of the fastest, easiest yeast-bread projects around. First you make the yeast dough and let it rise.

If you’re tapped to bring something to a potluck, this vegan challah bread, with its classic braided appearance, is a showstopper! Mashed white sweet potato adds extra sweetness to the dough.

Wild rice and a trio of seeds—sesame, flax, and chia—add extra nuttiness to this flavorful whole wheat bread, while chopped fresh herbs give every slice an inviting lift. We like fresh rosemary, dill, thyme, or oregano, but you can also skip the herbs. Be sure to let this hearty bread fully cool before you slice […]
This dense, chewy loaf is a type of Irish soda bread, but it tastes more like the moist, crumbly rye breads of Germany thanks to the hearty portion of oats swirled through the batter.

The tangy taste pairs perfectly with richly spiced Ethiopian dishes, while the absorbent texture is great for soaking up extra sauce. Traditional injera batter is fermented over four days, but this quick version gets its tang […]
