Turkey day is all about the big beautiful bird, I get it. But can we talk about the bread situation for a second? I rounded up my favorite easy, cozy, ridiculously good bread recipes so you have something warm and wonderful to mop up every last bit of gravy on your plate. These 10 recipes are going to be the real stars of your holiday table.

1. Spoon Rolls

If the idea of homemade rolls sounds amazing but your Thanksgiving schedule is already packed, these spoon rolls are the answer. The batter comes together with just six simple ingredients I usually have on hand: active dry yeast, water, butter, egg, sugar, and self-rising flour. You can even mix them up to four days ahead of time, so all you have to do is bake them when the big meal rolls around.

9. Cranberry Orange Bread

If you need a sweet bread for breakfast, snacking, or even dessert after the big meal, this cranberry orange bread is the one.

Every single bite is bursting with orange juice, orange zest, cranberries, and vanilla. It is pure sweet, slightly tangy perfection.

10. Swirled Herb Garlic Bread

Garlic herb bread is my absolute favorite, but when you swirl all that goodness into a gorgeous loaf? It takes things to a whole new level. Now, this one does take nearly 3 hours from start to finish, but a bread that looks and tastes this amazing deserves a little time. It is supremely buttery, incredibly cheesy, and packed to the max with garlicky, herby flavor.
