I’m not a resolution kinda person. I make myself some promises, hoping I’m keeping them, but I can’t call them resolutions.
This year I promised myself to find time to learn a couple of new bread techniques, like making sourdough with my own starter, or roux bread, learning more about flours and experimenting with as many as possible. I hope I won’t get upset after a couple of mistakes. Wish me luck!
But before I share my opinions on those techniques and ingredients with you let’s take a look back of what 2011 brought in my kitchen
10. Pita Chips
7. Coconut Buns
5. Garlic Buns
4. Pani Popo
3. Butter Buns
Is there any baking technique or ingredient you’d like me to work with and share my opinions? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Sending love your way,
Roxana

What a great roundup this must be for me? I am a breadaholic! these are all wonderful I love this post! Happy New Year great job!
I am a carb lover to the extreme. I think I could spend all day just drooling over your breads. The garlic rolls and herbed pull aparts and the walnut bread and the…See, I cannot choose a favorite!!
Wow, I love this post. Great recipes, I think my favorite here are the garlic buns. They look absolutely perfect. There is nothing better than the smell of fresh bread in your kitchen. Good luck and Happy New Year!
All of them? They look absolutely delicious. If I had to choose one though, it would be the regular loaves of yeast bread. For some reason mine end up more like bricks than the light and fluffy creations they're supposed to be. All of yours are gorgeous.
Roxana I am very excited to tag along with your bread making lessons this year!

Your space is a treasure trove Roxana. It is a promise to myself this year that I would learn to make breads this year and find many lovely recipes at your space. Thanks for sharing them and looking forward to many more delights from you.
What an awesome roundup!! I am a huge bread fan. You have so many yummy recipes I don't know where to start. (although those coconut buns are calling my name!!)
Ahh bread, rolls..my favorite food! every single look sooo good! You did awesome job in 2011, I can wait to see you in action in 2012!!!
Wow these are so fabulous!! Atleast this year, I have promised myself, I will make better bake at least once a month. This is one place I will be visiting and will ask my questions as I get down to the actual job of making bakes. Thanks for sharing them and will love to see many new bakes from you.
Wish you a very happy new year.
Thanks for your lovely comment at my space.
Oh my gosh, all your breads look so good! I am going to save this post for future use. I love baking bread and several of these are so unique I can't wait to try them! Happy New Year!
your breads are always awesome. I can't imagine you failing ! I need to try one of your braided breads this year.
An absolutely gorgeous line-up of breads! That grape and raisin flatbread is stunning!
Look at all those gorgeous breads! I love fresh bread, and you always make great ones. Good luck with your promise, I can't wait to see what you come up with!
After seeing these, I think that your house must have a permanent homemade bread aroma. However, I am sure that your family is more interested in the actual bread than the aroma! Glad you did this recap because some of these goodies I missed. You had a great year of posts in 2011 and I am sure with your talent, 2012 postings will be as delicious as ever!
So much yummy bread, I like baking bread, it's one of my favorite things actually. I don't make resolutions either, because I usually forget about them in a couple of weeks. Wow you have really changed things up over here, looks great. Happy New Years.

All of those look delicious, Roxana. I've had the multi seed pillows bookmarked ever since you posted those. I really really need to get around to making them… and everything else on this list
I love making bread and all of these have me itching to get into the kitchen and start baking. Yummy to all of them! I recently found your blog and find myself drooling on every post.
I am a new follower!

Gorgeous breads. Would love for you to share your pictures with us over at foodepix.com.
Hi Roxana, I must say that I love your last post on the pull apart bread, less messy than the version I have tried. Will give this a try when I have time. Happy New Year:)
As I was scrolling down the page I didn't know which one to choose from these beautifully made breads. I can't wait to see what new types you will make this year! A very Happy and Prosperous 2012 to you!
You know I've always been in awe of your breadmaking skills. Great roundup!
these look bakery perfect! i love your garlic rolls and pull apart cheesy bread – they are so inviting!
looking forward to another year of baking and good food from you!
I really enjoy all of the rolls and buns you come up with. I am pretty good on the basic breads but you always take it up a notch. Great round up! This is the one thing I really want to work on this year.
Your Olive Oil Rosemary Bread looks heavenly!
Every single one looks amazing!!! So delicious! You are a master with yeast!!!
This is an excellent roundup Roxana. You can't imagine how much I enjoy baking bread, well…really…how much I enjoy eating bread.
Roxana, you are the bread queen! Each bread looks better than the next. I'm wanting to do more in that department as well. Have you read how to bake a perfect life yet? She runs a bakery and creates some of the most unique starters. I think testing out some creative starters might be a fun direction to take. have a wonderful weekend!
Happy New Year, Roxana! I have missed you & your blog so much
How is your little Tiffany? Love that I came back to this post! I thought I would go through them and bookmark the ones I want to try, but it looks like I want to try almost all of them! Delicious looking! Can't wait to browse thru the other recipes I've missed! It's good to be back!
Another great round up, loving the butter buns!!
Happy New Year Roxana! Gee, you are amazing… I'm bookmarking this link (of course) in case I become a baker (just kidding! Okay I WILL be…
One day!!!). I'm crazy about bread and I seriously go way beyond I should eat. Your bread looks so good and I am not quite sure how you control the eating portion. I know I will have a hard time! Looking forward to your new posts this year.
Oh I love love this list! I adore homemade bread, you have such a gorgeous mix of recipes you have made. I love the grape and raisin bread, so unique to use the grapes:-) Hugs, Terra
Bread baking is part of my New Years Resolution also. This is a great collection. Glad to have "Stumbled" upon it. I have this bookmarked for a re visit
This post is heaven. I am a bread LOVER! Looking forward to your posts this year!
Roxana, you make such beautiful bread I'm sure your new experimentation will be wonderful too. Happy New Year
