The Ultimate Guide to Days of Unleavened Bread Recipes

I’ve created a one-stop-shop for Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread, all the unleavened bread recipes you’ll need for a wonderful spring holy days. 

If you’re looking for how to make unleavened bread, I’ve got your back.  Whether it’s something simple for memorializing the Passover and eating each day, a treat like cottage cheese rolls, or a delicious dessert for the Night to Be Much Observed, this post has tons of options.

All the unleavened bread recipes you'll need for the spring holy days

How to make unleavened bread

One thing before we dive in:  I keep the Days of Unleavened Bread (the week following Passover) as laid out in the bible, so I avoid leavening (sometimes called a rising agent).  This can be things like yeast, baking powder, etc. (definition here).   My understanding is that some Jewish people (particularly Orthodox Jews) may keep these days differently and also avoid flour and certain grains.  I canโ€™t speak to that in any way, and only you know how you keep the Passover season.  You do you.  But please donโ€™t send me angry comments, you have been warned ๐Ÿ™‚

Regular ol’ unleavened bread

Each of these gives instructions on how to make the unleavened bread.  Since it doesn’t have yeast and doesn’t need to rise, it’s generally quite simple…very little kneading, no waiting, nothing complex.

While I eagerly await warmer weather, I snuck in o While I eagerly await warmer weather, I snuck in one last winter cocktail...here's some Sage Advice! It's a winter-y version of a whiskey sour bringing both cinnamon and sage, and then skirting the line of daiquiri with the substitution of lime juice for the traditional lemon.

I've been making these healthy 5-ingredient browni I've been making these healthy 5-ingredient brownies on REPEAT for a couple months now. And knowing that they only take a few minutes to make has been a bit dangerous on random Tuesday nights when my sweet tooth strikes! 

Oh, and I forgot to mention that they're naturally gluten- & grain-free, dairy-free, egg-free, vegan, and (optionally) no sweetener added?

This cranberry snack cake is seriously my platonic This cranberry snack cake is seriously my platonic ideal for a cake. I DREAM of this cake. A soft, moist, dense buttery vanilla cake batter is studded with tart fresh cranberries, with a tiny crunch of raw sugar on top. A perfect dessert or snack for pretty much any occasion...including with a cup of tea on a random Tuesday afternoon...

These super easy marinated white beans are packed These super easy marinated white beans are packed with flavor & only take a few minutes to make! Even better?? They're best when made ahead of time (in 5 minutes!) and left for a day or two in the fridge for the flavors to really meld & intensify. 

This has become a go-to plant-based recipe, but I often throw some grilled salmon or chicken on top for a full meal.

I'm not generally a soup person, though I'm trying I'm not generally a soup person, though I'm trying to be more ๐Ÿœ But this Turkish corba (a spiced red lentil soup) has always been one of my exceptions.  It's CRAZY easy to make, full of veggies and the protein from the lentils, and just feels like a warm hug in a bowl!

Today, we FANCY. But also lazy. When I first saw a Today, we FANCY. But also lazy. When I first saw a recipe for the "lazy person's kouign amann", I was intrigued...and it definitely lives up to the hype! The texture isn't quite the same as the much more time-consuming and complex authentic French pastry it's hacking, but it's darn close and absolutely delicious.
