     Do you have a big family dinner at your house for Easter?  Or, do you keep things simple and avoid going to too much trouble when it comes to food on that day?  Either way, a nice fluffy loaf of bread, or rolls and maybe some cinnamon rolls to eat with all of those eggs in the morning is something that is always welcome.  The nice thing about baking bread is that you can bake it in advance of the day that you need it and then have it for dinner or a light meal.  
     Over time, on our blog, we have posted some pretty delicious recipes for bread that would be perfect for an Easter meal. On today's Friday Faves #96, we thought we would share some of our favorite loaves with you.  We will supply the buttons that lead to those recipes so that you can have them at your fingertips when you are ready to start baking.  You're welcome!  These loaves of Easter Bread would make awesome gifts to share with friends this Easter season, too!

This Braided Bread is one of the favorite loaves that I learned to bake early in my marriage. It is easy and quick as far as breads go and very good.
     You can read about the story behind this bread on this post. Click the button to go straight to the recipe.

This Portuguese Easter Bread is a recipe adapted from my Sister-in-Law's family recipe. It is a big part of my memories of her.
     Read about the traditions behind this Portuguese Braided Bread as related by my sister-in-law on this link.  I think I could also form this bread like the braided loaf and tuck the eggs in the braid.  That would look pretty!

This is the best and easiest free form baguette type loaf that you will find. We shared it awhile back and it definitely deserves another look just in case you missed it!
     I shared this recipe a couple of years ago.  It was given to me by my friend, Anita who got it from a friend of her's named Julie.  It is so simple and delicious to make.  I feel like many of you may have missed this amazing recipe.  Check out the original post here.

I fell in love with these rolls the first time I made them. Light and delicious rolls like these are perfect for Easter.
     I made cinnamon rolls out of part of this roll recipe that came out really good as well! www.3winksdesign.com/home/fluffy-and-delicious-potato-rollsThis post will show you how to do both.  The recipe is on there, too.

If you like to eat cinnamon rolls, but you also like to eat vegan, here are some quick vegan cinnamon rolls that Maddy shared.
     These rolls were shared on a Friday Fave over 2 years ago! You can see what the other favorite things were by going to this post. Or, click the button to go to the recipe.

     Now I have to decide which bread I will make for this year!  Let me know if you are baking bread this Easter.  We hope you might give one of our loaves a try!  Happy Baking!

No big family dinner. I don't have much family and I'm not keen to entertain. But I have been wanting to start baking my own bread and will try these recipes!

We always buy rolls from a local restaurant for our Easter lunch. Homemade would be great! Thanks for sharing at #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty
